If you have not already done so, it would be well for you 
to ccanmunlcate with the Postmaster at Gallup to make absolutely 
sure that the letter in question is not being held. Should the 
original check reach you, you should not attempt to cash it imtil 
advising this office, in order that stoppage of payment may be re- 
moved.
