TLS, one page, 7.5 x 10.75, March 20, 1903. Letter to W. H. Charles declining a speaking invitation. In part: “Your letter asking me to make an address…at the Annual dinner of the Penna. Department of the Young Men’s Christian Association, is at hand. I am in full sympathy with all that the Association is attempting to accomplish and would be very glad to do anything in my power to assist. I am sorry to say, however, that I have made plans for an absence from home in the month of May which, though of indefinite length, will certainly extend beyond the date fixed for the dinner.” Cleveland has also made two handwritten corrections to the letter’s text. In very good condition, with intersecting folds, one through a single letter of signature, scattered toning and creases, and show-through from mathematical equations on the reverse in an unknown hand. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
