The Burning Question at the Chelsea Hotel: Where’s Piri’s Money

Nobody seems to be able to find the 1.2 million that David Elder hid from author Piri Thomas.  They gutted Bob Dylan’s room looking for it, but it wasn’t there.  Then they dug up the entire roof carting away the trees and soil and various potted plants and still there was neither hide nor hair of the pilfered cash.  They even looked behind Arthur Nash’s Bring Back the Bards sign.  Zilch! Nada! We hear now that there’s a substantial reward being offered for the return of the money.  So much so that Moore Associates are planning to excavate the Cellar space looking for it.  We wish them luck!

Maybe Elder flushed it down that toilet he’s always posing with.
