Benoit,

I talked to Jeffrey who has $50,000 for you. Rather than giving you a grant, he wants to buy something from you. This would be something like drawings, a original painting(s), valuable original documents, etc.

I want to make this to happen immediately. Do you have an accountant, or someone familiar with your finances (your son, the doctor?) to talk to Jeffrey's people? Or can you talk with Jeffrey yourself? If you and/or your representative calls the number below, Leslie Groff, Leslie's assistant, will make the necessary connections.

## Jeffrey Epstein

(Assistant: Lesley Groff)

Leslie:

I will be free later today and will try to reach you. You can reach me over the weekend on my mobile.

Work on the book!!!

p.s. Happy New Year to Aillette and yourself!
