Mr. Editor: I take the liberty of sending you an item for the Eagle.&#13;
&#13;
Giants are not all dead yet, for we have them in and about El Paso. I will give you a few samples:&#13;
&#13;
Name.                                                            Height.               Weight.&#13;

And I could give you a company who measure six feet, or a little over. If any other community can beat this I will send you a few more names. The weight in all instances above is not exactly accurate, but approximates correctness.&#13;

Respectfully,&#13;
Dr. Tucker.</text>
