Text
My Dear Mr. President
I have just secured authentic information on two subjects
1st that Pres Madero resigned, the consideration being a promise of life and free passage from the country.
The second piece of information I give in blue code cipher below my signature. Do not suppose it will be necessary for you to act before I return but thought I had better communicate this information.
With assurances of esteem I am, my Dear Mr. President,
