Text
My dear Heath:-
Woodrow Wilson
You are quite right about the pentsion question. Both Mrs. Wilson and I agree that it sis too late now to take the matter up again. It seems to have quite lost its significance.
I cannot tell you how constantly my thought and sympathy go out to you, my dear Heath, but I know that you will know how to live throughe even this time of infinite pain and depression and will come out right in the end.
That you should be working and thinking of me at this time touches me more than I can say.
Woodrow Wilson
