Dear Governor
I have concluded not to go to Philadelphia tomorrow as I think I should keep in touch with the Currency situation.
I hope that you may not have to go to Mobile. It is a long, hard trip and I don’t believe it is worth the Candle. Please excuse me if I am butting in. It is inspired solely by my concern for you.Senator Owen is on the way here and is anxious to see you. I really think it important for you to see him for a moment. I shall do all that I can but he may need a little stimulus from you.Reed left in fine spirits and urged me to urge you to send immediately (invite) O’Gorman & Hitchcock to see you. He says 20 minutes with them now may be worth days hereafter. I hope you may be able to do this. I am going to keep in close touch with all the members of the Committee. Enclosed letter is a matter of importance & I dont want to send it without your approval — will you be good enough to read and return to me with a frank expression of your views. This is what I should like to do if it will not embarrass the administration.
