My dear Mr. Bok:
The interview of which you sent me a copy is certainly most deeply gratifying to me, but even it does not please me so much as your generous letter, which has put fresh movement into my blood.
I am heartily glad you are safe home again.
With warm appreciation,
Sincerely yours,
[Woodrow Wilson]
