Dear Mr. President:
JULIE called from New York to say that she
had just learned from her mother that they would
not be back until 8:15 PM tonight. She is terribly
sorry as they were looking forward to being with
you at Camp David tonight.
However, she thinks since they are going to
the ballgame tomorrow afternoon that they should
not drive up there tonight. (I told her I knew you
would agree and understand).
She again emphasized that I MUST tell you how
MUCH THEY WANTED TO BE UP THERE WITH YOU.

I greatly appreciated your kind invitation
to be your guest at the 1969 mid-summer Encampment
at the Bohemian Grove.
It was with sincere regret that I wrote, on
this day, Mr. Daniel London declining the invitation
extended by the Board due to extensive commitments
in California during the month of August. My schedule
demands that I be in Washington during July or I would
have been more than delighted to accept your thoughtful
invitation.
With kindest regards and best wishes, I am
Sincerely,
