82-F 8275 July 21, 1947 My dear Mr. Frye: I have for acknowledgment your letter of July thirteenth and wish it were possible to com- ply with your request for the President's auto- graph on the wedding invitation you enclosed. Unfortunately, however, the President is so busy with the many urgent official duties which con- front him daily that he has been forced to suspend the practice of autographing. Nevertheless, I want to extend to you and your fiance, on behalf of the President, congratula- tions and best wishes. Very sincerely yours, MATTHEW J. CONNELLY Secretary to the President Mr. D. Virgil Frye, Jr., 905 Park Lane, Muscatine, Iowa. Ret'd wedding invitation vb
