Dear Louis Back in 1999 there was a post by you on the old marxism list that mentioned Bill Kitt. I was looking for mentions of him, as his name comes up in the FBI files on the assassination of Trotsky. A "confidential informant" had informed NY FBI agent George C Starr that Bill Kitt had said that Nathan Gould had been in a "very intimate" relationship with "both the Ageloff girls". It is clear that Kitt was not the informant, but somebody with whom Kitt would have felt able to share party gossip was. The informant was well informed about the Abern group, as well as who was where during the splits and mergers of the period. He (male gender is confirmed by a defect in redaction) claimed to have met Sylvia at the SWP HQ. He knew that Felix Morrow was organising and recruiting guards for Trotsky in Mexico. The informant had a short name, 4 or 5 letters only, but consistently redacted. From that info, do you have any clues as to the identity of the informant? Best wishes JP
John, I don't have anything on this but I will forward your query to Marxmail.
