      Attention: Mr. Albert Brand, President

 Gentlemen:

      This is in response to your claim for property damage resulting from
 an accident on or about Septembe-'20, 1979, in WashingtonD.C., involving
 Mr. Derry W. McNeil, an employee of the United States General Accounting
 Office.

      You state that your truck was parked on the H Street Ramp (Ramp C)
 at the General Accounting Office Building and was struck by a car driven
 by Mr. McNeil, leaving the left front bumper of your truck pulled out of
 place.

      Our examination of the evidence on record in this case indicates
 that you are entitled to the amount of $125.90, the lesser of the two
 estimates you submitted. A check in that amount will be issued and
 mailed to you shortly.

      Please be advised that section 2672 of title 28, United States Code,
which authorizes the settlement of 6laims of the type here involved,
provides:

           The acceptance by the claimant of any such award,
      compromise, or settlement shall be final and conclusive
      on the claimant, and shall' constitute a complete release
      of any claim against the United States and against the
      employee of the government whose act or omission gave
      rise to the claim, by reason of the same subject matter.

 Therefore, acceptance of the check in the amount of $125.90 will constitute
 a complete release to the Government and to Mr. Derry W. McNeil from any
 further liability to you for damages arising from this accident.

                                     Sincerely yours,
                                     HarrY R. V Cleve

                                  *Milton J. Socolar
                                     General Counsel
