Dear Friend
I want to thank you for your prompt attention to the request made in behalf of my friend, Doctor Axson and his book on Lincoln. He very warmly appreciates your kindly cooperation and is anxiously awaiting your reply.
I want to tell you also how genuinely I appreciate your generous kindness in sending me the books. I have been reading them with much interest, and it certainly does bring back the scenes of other days. These books are really good now and will improve still more with time. You have done a great piece of work. The next time you come to Washington I want you to break bread with us and to autograph the book. It is something my boys will be proud of and will greatly prize.
The boys are going strong these days in anticipation of Santa Claus. They and Mrs. Grayson join me in affectionate greetings.
Faithfully yours,
Cary T. Grayson
