Jamury 19, 1949
Mt dear Friend:
It was a very pleasant surprise to hear
from you, and I deaply appreciated your heart-
warming letter. It brightened this rainy Wash
ington day a great deal for me.
My part in the incident at Three Rivers
was small, but I was proud to share in providing
for Felix Longoria the decent Christian, American
burial which his unselfish service deserves. It
is reassuring to me to know that you foel as you
do about my action, and with the support of friends
like you, the words of critics can never hurt.
If ever I can be of any service to you in
any way here in Washington or back home in Texas,
please do not hesitate to let mo know.
With best wishes,
Sincerely,
Lyndon B. Johnson
