TLS as president, one page, 7 x 8.75, White House letterhead, August 12, 1946. President Truman contacts the Most Reverend Thomas M. O’Leary, Bishop of Springfield, Massachusetts, on the 25th anniversary of his consecration as a bishop. In part: “I am sure that this important milestone will bring you many happy memories of the work which you have done during the past quarter of a century. May I express the hope that you will long be spared in health and strength to continue your devoted labors as Chief Pastor.” Some wrinkles and small creases, and a small stain at the right edge, otherwise fine condition. Accompanied by the original transmittal envelope. Beautiful sentiments from Truman a year after he succeeded to the presidency following Roosevelt’s death.
