TLS as President, one page, 7 x 9, White House letterhead, July 13, 1937. Roosevelt writes to the pastor of a Lutheran church in Louisville, Kentucky, on the rededication of the church following the Great Flood of 1937. In part: “Every man and woman who leads a full life learns sooner or later the lesson that adversity is not always an unkind teacher. Indeed most of us have found spiritual strength and renewed courage by traveling over rough roads. I am sure the lessons which come to us individually will be brought home to you and your congregation collectively when you rededicate the rehabilitated fabric of Memorial Lutheran Church.” In fine condition, with scattered light spots of toning.
