Text
My dear Heath:
Woodrow Wilson
Alas, I am not to see you. I find that this is my only chance to get away for an absolutely needed rest and I am going down the river Friday afternoon, to be gone until Monday morning. I am not very keen for any sort of public dinner, but I am genuinely disappointed that I am not to have the great pleasure of seeing you. Better luck next time!Your guess as to the German note was certainly very close to the mark.
In haste
Woodrow Wilson
