TLS, two pages on two adjoining sheets, 6 x 7.75, Princeton University letterhead, December 20, 1909. Letter to Mary E. Hoyt. In part: “All the recent house-moving in Princeton was done by B. B. Rogers, Contractor, of Allentown, N. J. He seems to have given satisfaction, and I understand that his charges were moderate. I am sincerely sorry that you should find it necessary to move your home, but I dare say that it is prudent to do so in the circumstances…I should think that it would be a serious question whether, if Miss Rembaugh is building up a practice, it would be worth her while to interrupt that process for the temporary occupancy of a precarious office, unless in her judgment to be associated with the District Attorney’s office would give her additional prestige and enable her to build her practice up more rapidly after she left that office.” In fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope. The recipient, who he addresses as “Cousin Mary,” was a cousin of his then-wife, Edith Axson Wilson. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
