Text

My dear Heath:

Along with your letter of June twenty-first about Andrew A. Hawkins came a note to me from the Secretary of the Navy in which he says:

I suppose that ends the matter in strict conformity with the regulations and interests of the service. I am sorry to find the fellow is not all that he ought to be, but probably he is a good riddance!

In haste

Affectionately yours,
Woodrow Wilson
