I had the pleasure of meeting Bill Tate at the Golden Glove competition, held in Harlem hosted at the local P. A. L, he is a fragile humble and kind fellow of a salesman, who sells his pitch with that big beautiful smile smooth and wobbled voice Mr Tate speaks his mind loud and clear. While at the Golden Gloves Tournament, He, (Bill Tate) mentioned "Little Wyatt Tate" his prolific writing works, we exchanged information and promised to stay in touch regarding future production works and the book "Little Wyatt Tate", three days later I received a package with a book and a kind note, at the end of the scribe it read, "U. O me $15.00 for book" Bill Tate
We have been friends ever since.
