So....how did the George Brewer, Jr, FiL of Priscilla's hardly familiar CIA assist and first cousin David Davenport,
get the OSS chief job in 1942 in London he soon handed off to David KA Bruce? Brewer evidently was vetted during his Groton and
Yale years....
Lower in this post I included the article image of the 1923 wedding of George Brewer, Jr The ushers included Charles White.....

tiny) Groton School class of 1918. He and Cornelius V Whitney were members of the Yale Groton Club in 1922.

Langbourne Williams Is Dead; Retired Businessman Was 91
By JOHN HOLUSHASEPT. 14, 1994
...One of the Williams firm's investments was in the Freeport-Texas Company, a sulfur-mining company based in New York. Concerned that the management of the company was not moving aggressively to increase reserves, Mr. Williams and some associates decided to become corporate raiders, waging a proxy fight in 1928.
The existing management fought back, at one point filing a $1 million libel suit against Mr. Williams and his associates because they had made accusations that Freeport-Texas managers were working more for themselves than the shareholders. Two years later, in 1930, the Williams group prevailed by less than 4,000 shares. Mr. Williams, then 27, was sent to the company's headquarters in New York as vice president, treasurer and a director of the company. Company Branched Out
Three years later, he advanced to president of the company, with John Hay Whitney, a prominent New York investor, named chairman. Mr. Williams stayed with the company as president until 1958 and as chairman until 1967, building the company's operations to the point where it became the largest producer of sulfur in the country and branching out into other minerals like nickel....
Whitney's first cousin, Jock, (John Hay Whitney) owned the NY Herald Tribune in 1963 and was described personally writing the ASAP editorial (article image below) in his newspaper, an early attempt to cement the LN case closed, conclusion. Jock Whitney and Langbourne
Williams worked together on Wall Street and Jock financed Williams's accumulation of Freeport Sulphur stock shares resulting in a 1930
hostile takeover of Freeport.

After the war, Trubee went back to Yale and, while rooming with fellow Unit member "Di" (Artemus) Gates, finished his undergraduate program graduating in 1919.[2] In 1920, Trubee Davison married Dorothy Peabody, the daughter of the headmaster at Groton School where he had attended before attending Yale.

JFK, Indonesia, CIA & Freeport Sulphur
Written by Lisa Pease
The second part of Lisa Pease's study of the links between Freeport Sulphur, the CIA and the JFK assassination focuses on Kennedy's Indonesian policy.
.....
1959: Copper Mountain
At this point, Freeport Sulphur entered the Indonesian picture. In July, 1959, Charles Wight, then President of Freeport-and reported to be fomenting anti-Castro plots and flying to Canada and/or Cuba with Clay Shaw (see Part I of this article)-was busy defending his company against House Committee accusations of overcharging the Government for the nickel ore processed at the Government-owned plant in Nicaro, Cuba. The Committee recommended that the Justice Department pursue an investigation. Freeport's Moa Bay Mining Company had only just opened, and already the future in Cuba looked bleak.

David Atlee Phillips, Clay Shaw and Freeport Sulphur
Written by Lisa Pease
....One man whose name we first thought to be WHITE apparently is WIGHT, Vice President of Freeport Sulphur who reputedly made the flight. Currently an effort is being made to locate WIGHT, who lives in New York.
Despite the fact that the original source of this information was JULES RICCO KIMBLE, a man with a record, this lead keeps growing stronger. From the very outset it had been reported that the flight had something to do with the import of nickle following the loss of the original import supply from Cuba. Recent information developed on WIGHT in a separate memo indicated that he is now on the Board of Directors of the Freeport Nickel Company, a subsidiary of Freeport Sulphur. - NODA Clay Shaw Lead File note, no date....
Henry Hurt of Readers Digest married in 1968 the niece of Freeport's chairman, Langbourne Williams. 8 years later,
Hunt threatened Billy Joe Lord, using stated advice (by Lord to Jimmy Carter) to pressure Lord from close personal friends of then DCI, George HW Bush.:

Dec. 6 specially decorated Bush '41 Train engine, was Billy Joe Lord on board?
.....Henry Hurt is simply supposed to be an Readers Digest journalist author with emphasis on National Security matters.
This dents that assumption quite remarkably.:
Eight years earlier, Hurt was working in Kennebunkport and marrying into the Bemiss/Williams family.:
Jim Beamis, full of advice for Hurt as described in the Lord letter is a slam dunk match for Bush Kennebunkport
