President Woodrow Wilson
Dear Sir
My first Presidential vote was for Abraham Lincoln in 1860 and I have voted for every Republican President since, untill the last time you ran.- I voted for you, because I liked the way you done business. And I haven’t been sorry I voted for you. I place you in the front rank with Washington and Lincoln, but think you have a great deal harder job than eather one of the others. I hope and pray you may be spared to finish out your term and be elected to another term. I wish you would write me your name in your own hand so I can leave it to my Family
Yours Truly
John B Weeks
