TLS signed “John Kennedy,” one page, 8 x 10.5, Congress of the United States, House of Representatives letterhead, January 22, 1952. Letter to Edward Dolan of Fall River, Massachusetts. In part: “This will acknowledge receipt of your letter of January 18th, relative to your desire to secure information regarding federal funds which might be available for the Fall River General Hospital…I have taken this particular matter up with the Public Health Service here in Washington, and shall be very happy to continue to do what I can to assist you in this connection. When I hear from the Public Health Service in this respect, I shall again communicate with you.” Kennedy pens a brief postscript at the conclusion, in full: “I appreciate very much your generous comments—I hope to see you when I am in Fall River.” In fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope. At this time, Kennedy was amidst his ambitious campaign to unseat Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr., in the Senate. Utilizing his brother Robert F. Kennedy as his campaign manager, JFK’s vigorous effort included visiting every city, town, and village in Massachusetts at least once—Fall River among them.
