Re:          Diversified Resources, Inc.

Post-Effective Amendment to Registration Statement on Form S-1

File No. 333-175183

Diversified Resources, Inc. requests that the post-effective amendment to the Company's registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-175183) be withdrawn,

The reason for this request is that the amendment is out of date and the shares which were to be sold by the selling shareholders named in the registration statement can be sold pursuant to Rule 144.

No shares were sold by means of the post-effective amendment.

Very truly yours,

/s/ Paul Laird
