5148-Hammerberg June 29, 1922
Mr. A. Tulla
Postmaster,
Sax, Minnesota.
Dear Sir:
I am in receipt of a
letter from Mr. C. J. Johnson relative to his nephew Carl Hammerberg, our No.
5148. This young man was granted a parole at a meeting of the Board of Parole
held at this institution June 1st and his uncle offers to give him
employment. The rules of the board of Parole are that when a man is employed by
one of his relatives someone outside the family must countersign the monthly
reports, a copy of which I enclose.
The rules governing men paroled from
this institution are as follows:
They are not permitted to use
intoxicating liquor in any form.
They are not permitted to leave or change
their places of
employment without written permission from the
Superintendent of
from this office.
They are required to make two
reports on the twentieth of each
month, one to the Superintendent and one to
the State Agent, State
Capitol, St. Paul, Minnesota. Blanks for this purpose are furnished by the Institution.
The employer is expected to sign these reports and to report at
once any misconduct on the part of the young man, using the wire at our expense should it be deemed necessary.
Men are kept on parole at least one year before they are eligible to
make application for discharge from parole.
If you are willing to
countersign the reports for this man, will you please write me, using the
enclosed envelope, and as soon as I hear from you I will make arrangements for
the young man to report for work.
Thanking you for giving this matter
your attention, I remain
Very truly yours.
K-d
State
Parole Agent
