Dear Governor
115 East 53rd Street,
New York
Upon receipt of your letter this morning I got the cable off to Balfour.
–––––––––––––––––––
The enclosed copy of cable is one received by the Evening Mail. This man Odell is close to the Germans and it seems significant that he should send such a message. Would you advise my getting Rumely to ask for something more specific?
Affectionately yours,
115 East 53rd Street,
New York
