TLS as president, one page, 6.75 x 8.75, White House letterhead, June 18, 1923. Letter to Rachel Harding Russell, in full: "Your letter of June 10th was duly received and you can be sure it was read with not only interest but surprise as well. I deplore very deeply the state of unhappiness which you relate therein. I would be more than glad if I could say a word which would relieve the situation in a manner satisfactory to all concerned. I am sure you can understand, however, how impossible it is for me to make a personal and detailed inquiry and I know I should be utterly lacking in prudence if I entered a family quarrel without a very intelligent knowledge of the entire situation. I am always ready to be helpful, but you are asking me something in your letter that I frankly doubt the propriety of my doing." In fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope.
