Text

My dear Father Rockwell:

May I not express the very great and sincere gratification caused me by your letter of August 4th offering to the Government your personal allegiance and that of the Province entrusted to your care. It is evident from your letter that you and those associated with you are finding many and very effective ways of serving the common interest in the present crisis, and I write to say to you how glad I shall be to keep in mind your generous letter, in case any specific occasion should offer for availing myself of your services either directly or indirectly.

Cordially and sincerely yours,

[Woodrow Wilson]



The Rev. Joseph H. Rockwell, S.J.,
Provincial Maryland-New York Province,
30 West 16th St., New York.
