Dear Mr. Roosevelt:
On June 20th 1933 I wrote you for permission to give
rig's
you a registered Polled Hereford bull calf for use
in your herd at Warm Springs. This permission you
graciously gave. Now I find myself in the unenviable
position of postponing a gift. The bull calf did not
develop into the quality bull he promised to be. I
intended substituting another calf for him but my cows
sinde then have shown an unaccountable prediliction
for heifer calves and I have not a single bull calf.
I
May I let my gift to you wait until I have a bull calf
suitable quality? I want very much to give you a calf
and one of which neither of us will be ashamed.
Also may I thank you individualy and for the Georgia
Beef Cattle Raisers Association, of which I am
secretary, for becoming a member with us. I believe
that with the inspiration of your fellow membership
we will build a good organization and be of help to
the cattlemen of the state.
With my heartiest best wishes, I am,

My dear Mr. President:
The Linnaean Society of New York, by vote of its
council and members, takes great pleasure in sending you,
under separate cover, a specially bound copy of "The Birds
of Dutchess County," compiled from the notes of our mutual
friend, the late Maunsell S. Crosby of Rhinebeck.
We do this because we know that Maunsell would have
so wished; because he spoke so frequently, to those of us
who knew him well, of his warm and old friendship with you,
of your genuine interest in birds.
Many of us enjoyed the privilege of visiting Maunsell
spring and fall during the migrations, and went afield with
him on routes which always took in a corner of your estate
at Hyde Park.
There will be a short lapse between your receipt of
this and of the book, as the binding is not complete; a
New York Times reporter got the jump on us today and the
article might come to your attention. We naturally wish
you to hear of the book first from us.
Sincerely Tohn Paun yours

Dear Mr. President:-
While Governor of the State of New York, I have had the
esteemed honor of being escorted into your presence without much
difficulty. In fact, one occassion has left a sweet imprint of you
in my memory, but which has undoubtedly faded in yours; what with
all the great things you have accomplished for this country which
we mutually love and cherish.
Your love for this vast piece of land is far greater than
mine; and you have shown us, the people, how much you are willing
to sacrifice SO that we may all prosper under your able guidence.
Mr. President, knowing that I do not pepresent the entire
population of this nation, I must therefore confine myself to speak
in the singular and what I have to say is this: No greater MAN
has ever had the rudder of our Ship of State that you! Not even
the Great Emancipator, whose birthday we are commemorating today!
The incident I began to refer to, before my admiration
for your splendid deeds ran away with my thoughts, was when my
editor (I was at that time with a now defunct New York paper) found
that his paper had missed up on one of your bills introduced to the
State Legislature. You had left Albany and were spending a quiet
day in New York.
I was assigned to obtain that story--or else! Well, I had
known how decent you have been to us of the Fourth Estate on previous
occassions; SO with my heart in my mouth, I called at your city
residence and asked your permission for the oftmentioned story.
Not only did you give it to me, but made me feel like I
was having a heart-to-heart talk with my own father, and not to the
MAN who was shortly to become the most famous person in modern
American history!
Now, after all these eventful years, I am asking that
another honor be bestowed upon my humble head. This time, not only
is my heart in my mouth, but a cold sweat, caused by the fear that
I may be taking advantage of your sweet hospitality.
Well, Mr. President, in your radio talks to the nation,
you have called the American people "My Friends", SO I will place
my request in a friend-to-friend manner. Here goes:-

I have written a novel which pictures you as only a
person whose very existance in this world depended
upon displaying his true and sincere admiration for
the President of the United States.
I have not added any flavoring to my picturezation
of you, because I found that if I wrote the honest
truth, that added touch would not be necessary. In
fewer words, your noble deeds speak for themselves.
It's titled "The Pulitzer Prize Winner"
This novel will be published before April 1st. What I ask of
SO busy a person as you, is to please confirm upon me the honor of
excepting the first copy off the presses.
An act of this kind, will remain in my memory for the rest of
the existing years of my natural life.
There, I was courageous enough to place my request down black
on white! Now, my faith is in your hands!
As an auctioneer would say
"Do I hear my request accepted?"
Thank you for reading a letter from so humble a person as
myself, and let me, in closing, wish you Health and Courage to carry
on with your renovation of the United States of America.
And may God Bless his Savior!

But it's natural as life, sir,
Of the boys who were buried there;
Just thrown in a hole with bocts on;
No ceremony, song or prayer.
And seemed to have been forgotten
Arter many long years had passed by,
"Till Dr. Simpson remembered
Their many kind deeds with a sigh;
Then he erected this statue
Which stands as a sentinel guard
Awaiting the resurrection
Of these cowboys the world called hard.
Well they were kind hearted fellows,

And their friendship was true as steel,
But when they were full of liquor,
Then 'twas a different deal,
That's when they were wild and wooly
And came in to shoot up the town,
That's how Boot Hill got its name, sir,
And one cause of Dodge City's renown.

My dear Mr. Liberatore:
Your letter of January thirtieth has been
received and I want to thank you heartily in
behalf of the President for your thoughtfulness
in sending him the wood carvings to which you
refer. He asks me to tell you how much he appre-
ciates this gift made by your own hands, and to
say that he is indeed grateful for your good
wishes and for your prayers.
Very sincerely yours,

Your Excellency:
In honor of the anniversary of your Excellency's
birth, I avail mysèlf of the occasion to present both, your
Excellency and Mrs. Roosevelt, with your own likenesses in
wood, as far as I am able to reproduce it. I am not an
artist, but am a plasterer by trade; I am forty-six years
old and have never done carving before in my life.
I have attempted to reproduce the likeness
of both your Excellency and Mrs. Roosevelt, on account of
my great admiration for and devotion to both.
It is,
therefore, my fond wish that you both will accept these,
my humble efforts, and with congratulations, good wishes
d
and prayers that God may bless to preserve
your precious life for the wellfare of OURs nation, I am,
Humbly and devotedly,
