ALS signed “Wm. H. Taft,” two pages on two adjoining sheets, 5 x 8, personal letterhead, March 17, 1917. Letter to Mrs. Charles Neal Barney. In full: “I write to thank you and Mr. Barney for making my visit to Lynn [Massachusetts] so delightful. I am sorry to have missed the dinner but it was my own fault and I deserved the punishment. The reception, the delightful music of the Misses Whittemore, our discussion of men and things at breakfast, the visit to the General Electric and the shoe factories make up a full day and one I shall long remember. With the hope that our paths may soon cross again, and with best wishes to Mr. Barney.” In fine condition, with a trivial tear to bottom edge of second page. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, addressed in Taft’s hand. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
