My dear Mr. President
I cannot let this historic moment pass without sending you a word of appreciation and congratulation. You have done this great thing! May God's blessing rest on it and on you.
May I add too a word of gratitude for your patience with all of us who have had parts in the execution of your great vision. For myself I can only say that your constant support and confidence and forbearance have been at once my comfort and my courage whenever the task seemed either long or hard.
Gratefully and respectfully yours,
The President
