Summary
Joe Bell presented the newspapers to the narrator reguarding the arrest of Holly Golightly. The newpaper article listed the accounts against Holly. They both went back to Joe's bar to make phone calls to get Holly released from jail.
First, they tried to contact O.J. Berman but he did not want to be disturbed because he was getting a massage. Next, they called Mr. Trawler who was away to dinner so they tried to leave a message with Mag Wildwood but they were unsuccessful. The narrator finally got a hold of Mr. Berman. By that hour, Berman had heard the news and payed a lawyer to get Holly out of jail.
The narrator went to feed the cat and found Holly's cousin in the apartment. He presented a letter to the narrator that read For Miss H.Golightly-Courtesy Bearer.(97)
