PER CURIAM:

     Tulain Wong appeals the thirty-nine month sentence imposed by

the district court following his plea of guilty to bank robbery, 18

U.S.C.A. § 2113(a) (West Supp. 2000).   Wong contends that the dis-

trict court erred in enhancing his offense level pursuant to U.S.

Sentencing Guidelines Manual § 2B3.1(b)(2)(F) (1998) for making a

threat of death.   We find that the content of the note that Wong

handed to the teller during the bank robbery is sufficient to

support the enhancement under USSG § 2B3.1(b)(2)(F).    See United

States v. Franks, 183 F.3d 335, 338 (4th Cir. 1999).   Wong’s con-

viction and sentence are accordingly affirmed.    We dispense with

oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-

ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.




                                                          AFFIRMED
