ALS, four pages on two adjoining sheets, 5 x 8, black-bordered personal letterhead, no date, but labeled “Easter Day.” Letter to Mrs. Mabel Boardman after the passing of her husband, Woodrow Wilson. In part: “I read in the hearts of these exquisite flowers a very deep meaning—and the assurance that they represent your thought, and your message from across the sea means more than words can convey to you…now the thoughts of good friends and continuing sympathy gives new courage to face the grief…Mr. Wilson always had for you such warm admiration and such a deep interest in the way you met and conquered the situations that arose in the Red Cross—particularly during the War.” In fine condition, with a few small separations along fold and hinge. The recipient of this letter, Mabel Boardman, headed the Red Cross after Clara Barton. RRAuction COA.
