Description

"What you write me of St. John's College at Annapolis confirms my high opinion of the institution"

TLS as president, one page, 7 x 9, White House letterhead, March 26, 1903. Letter to Captain Willard Brownson at Annapolis. In full: "Will you kindly hand this letter to Dr. Fell and say that he can make such use of it as he desires. What you write me of St. John's College at Annapolis confirms my high opinion of the institution. Owing to the circumstances enumerated it seems to me that the effort of Dr. Fell for the betterment of the college is entitled to the hearty good-will of government authorities. I earnestly hope he may be successful." In very good condition, with scattered creasing, toning, wrinkles, and damp staining to both left corners. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
