My dear Heath:
Woodrow Wilson
Thank you for your letter of the eighteenth of March about Mr. Hampson Gary. I shall take pleasure in handing it on to the Secretary of State, though I am afraid that the post in Persia is already preempted.
It is always a delight to hear from you, and my daughter Eleanor thanks you most warmly for your kind words about her engagement.
In haste
Woodrow Wilson
