ENID, Oklahoma (CNN) -- A former congressional page who was reportedly told in an instant message from former Rep. Mark Foley to "strip down and get relaxed" likely will talk to federal agents investigating the scandal next week, his lawyer said Friday. Jordan Edmund, now a 21-year-old aide to Rep. Ernest Istook, R-Oklahoma, was among the pages to whom Foley wrote e-mails and allegedly sent lurid instant messages. Foley resigned September 29 as a series of correspondences between him and teenage male pages became public. The six-term Republican had represented Florida's 16th District.

Attorney Stephen Jones declined to discuss Edmund's contact with Foley, but said the 21-year-old likely would sit down with investigators from the FBI or Department of Justice next week. "I anticipate that he will meet with one of them, at least, next week," he said.

ABC News, which first published the messages that sparked Foley's abrupt resignation, published an instant-message exchange the network said was between Edmund and Foley. In it, the user Maf54, whom ABC News identifies as Foley, asked the teen: "You in your boxers, too?" The teen replied, "Nope, just got home. I had a college interview that went late."

"Well, strip down and get relaxed," Maf54 wrote back.

1. Will he TOFTT or will he tell all?

That he is still an aide to a repuke congressman doesn't give me hope that he will be truthful.
