(Hyde Park letter) mpl Originals went with badges to Hyde Park Library, 3-13-45 R./.S. January 16, 1945 president. Honorable Franklin D. Roosevelt, Dear Sir: Cleveland and Stevenson on March 4, 1893. The day was very Enclosed please find a badge I wore at the insuguration of very cold and stormy. Many of the delegates returned home with nasty, bad colds and some died. Just think the "tired Old Man", as friend from Michigan called you, was but ten years old. Also you my will. find a badge worn by me at the Convention at Rochester at which Convention we nominated you for Governor and sent you on your way to Washington. I can remember that Convention as if it were yesterday when we arrived from Long Beach. The hotel was crowded and I was told that they had Warm Springs on the 'phone begging you to run for Governor. After hours of pleading late that night you broke down and consented to run. You know what happened you were elected and the Happy Warrier was defeated. Mr. President, have you ever thought what would have happened if you had declined. The old saying is, "there is a destiney that shapes our end, rough hew them as we may." Maybe you won't want to keep the badge because of the Tammany connection, but I am proud of being an old Tarmany man. My grandfater, after returning from the "ar in 1812, joined the Society. It has lost much of its power, but I know lots of good honest men who did and still belong to it. Pometimes I laugh at Mr. Dewey. One would think everything good, pure, etc., was in the Republican party. Seems to me that Platt Odell and a few more knew how to play the game. We have a good vote in down state -- then the good and holy would get together and count the dead ones up state. Result another Republicen elected. Do you remember Berd in Caler. He was elected. I remember we paraded around 125th Street election night in celebration only to wake up next morning to find out the dead ones were counted again and Caler was defeated. Sometimes I run over to "ashington. I have never visited the White House. After all the excitement is over would you let me know how I can see the inside of the White House. Mr. President, I often wonder why you prefer Washington to that grand old place at Hyde Park, Take good care of yourself and may the Good Lord watch over and guide you.

Dear Sir: Enclosed please find a badge I wore at the inauguration of Cleveland and Stevenson on March 4, 1893. The day was very nasty, very cold and stormy. Many of the delegates returned home with bad colds and some died. Just think the "tired Old Man", as my friend from Michigan called you, was but ten years old. Also you will find a badge worn by me at the Convention at Rochester at which Convention we nominated you for Governor and sent you on your way to Washington. I can remember that Convention as if it were yesterday when we arrived from Long Beach. The hotel was crowded and I was told that they had Warm Springs on the 'phone begging you to run for Governor. After hours of pleading late that night you broke down and consented to run. You know what happend - -- you were elected and the Happy Warrior was defeated. Mr. President, have you ever thought what would have happened if you had declined. The old saying is, "there is a destiny that shapes our end, rough hew them as we may." Maybe you won't want to keep the badge because of the Tammany connection, but I am proud of being an old Tammany man. My grandfater, after returning from the War in 1812, joined the Society. It has lost much of its power, but I know lots of good honest men who did and still belong to it. Sometimes I laugh at Mr. Dewey. One would think everything good, pure, etc., was in the Republican party. Seems to me that Platt Odell and a few more knew how to play the game. We have a good vote in down state then the good and holy would get together and count the dead ones up state. Result another Republican elected. Do you remember Berd S. Caler. He was elected. I remember we paraded around 125th Street election night in celebration only to wake up next morning to find out the dead ones were counted again and Caler was defeated. Sometimes I run over to Washington. I have never visited the White House. After all the excitement is over would you let me know how I can see the inside of the White House. Mr. President, I often wonder why you prefer Washington to that grand old place at Hyde Park. Take good care of yourself and may the Good Lord watch over and guide you. Sincerely yours, JOHN F.

Roosevelt, Dear Sir: Enclosed please find a badge I wore at the inauguration of Cleveland and Stevenson on March 4, 1893. The day was very nasty, very cold and stormy. Many of the delegates returned home with bad colds and some died. Just think the "tired Old Man," as my friend from Michigan called you, was but ten years old. Also you will find a badge worn by me at the Convention at Rochester at which Convention we nominated you for Governor and sent you on your way to Washington. I can remember that Convention as if it were yesterday when we arrived from Long Beach. The hotel was crowded and I was told that they had Warm Springs on the 'phone begging you to run for Governor. After hours of pleading late that night you broke down and consented to run. You know what happened - you were elected and the Happy Warrior was defeated.

I remember the very nice visit I had with you in Pa Watson's office. We were all shocked and distressed at the sad news of Pa's death. He was a grand person and we shall all miss him very much, particularly the President. You are more than kind to want to send to the President shipments of fish from +PP79-7 time to time. As you know, the President is particularly fond of lobster and I know he will be delighted to have some of the Canada x 108 variety which 1s especially delicious. Will you be good enough to address the package as XPP79-L follows: Mr. Morgan Geiss 1834 L St. N. W. (Labiters) Washington, D. C. Pa gave me some of those delicious smelts which you sent to him shortly before he left on the trip to the Crimea. He said "they were the finest smelts he ever had eaten" and I agreed with him. The President had a very interesting and, I think, successful trip and returned to Washington in fine spirits. He asks me to send you his grateful thanks and best wishes, to which I add mine.

PERSONAL Miss Grace Tulley, The White House, WASHINGTON, D.C. Dear Miss Tulley:- You probably remember meeting me in Washington with General Watson on one or two occasions. We received the news of the death of the General with great sorrow. He was a great friend of mine over a period of years, and I always visited he and Mrs. Watson when I went to Washington. My home, as you probably know, is on the southern shore of New Brunswick near Campobello, and I have known the President, as a friend, quite a long time. The last year or two I have been in Ottawa as a dollar a year man but expect to be through here before very long. We have large quantities of fish in New Brunswick caught in the area around Campobello where I am inter- ested in a large fish plant. I have been sending certain fish, when they were in season, to the White House for a number of years. First, I used to send them to Colonel McIntyre, whom I had met at Campobello and knew very well. Later I sent them to General Watson. What I would like to know now is, would it be alright for me to send them in your name, and you could pass them around as General Watson did. The lobster season is on now, and I would like to send some fresh lobster, if agreeable. We were all so glad to read in the Press that the President came back from Yalta in robust health. His unprecedentedservice to mankind will not be forgotten in a thousand years, and we think as highly of Mr. Roosevelt in Canada as the people of the United States, and we do hope that he will be granted the best of health to finish the greatest job that was ever given to any statesman. With kind personal regards to the President and yourself, I am, Yours very truly, A. N. McLesn THE wartime PRICES AND trade BOARD CANADA Musishen 490 - Sussex Street, Ottawa, Ontario, March 19, 1945. PERSONAL Miss Grace G. Tully, The White House, WASHINGTON, D.C. Dear Miss Tully:- RA I want to thank you sincerely for your kind letter of March 13th. As lobsters are in season at the present time, I have given instructions for a shipment to go forward early this week, so they should arrive any day now, and you can pass the word on to Mr. Morgan Geiss to be on the lookout for same. I might say these lobsters come from near Campobello and they should be very good ones, so I trust you will all enjoy them. Hoping to see you sometime when I am in Washington, and with kind personal regards to all, I am Yours very truly, anywher A. N. McLean March 27, 1945 My dear Mr. McLean: Those wonderful lobsters arrived in perfect condition, and I turned over half of them to the President and Mrs. Roosevelt. They had them for lunch the other day and enjoyed them im- mensely. My family and I had a lobster feast, so you can see how many people you made happy. This takes to you the President's, Mrs. Roosevelt's and my grateful thanks for your thought of us. Pa's death has left us all very sad. He was such a fine person and we shall all miss him very much. I do hope that the next time you are in Washington you will be sure to come in and see us. With kindest regards, Always sincerely, Grace G. Tully Private Secretary Mr. 4. N.

Honorable Franklin D. Roosevelt,\nDear Sir:\nCleveland and Stevenson on March 4, 1893. The day was very\nEnclosed please find a badge I wore at the insuguration of\nvery cold and stormy. Many of the delegates returned home with nasty, bad\ncolds and some died. Just think the \"tired Old Man\", as friend\nfrom Michigan called you, was but ten years old. Also you my will. find\na badge worn by me at the Convention at Rochester at which Convention\nwe nominated you for Governor and sent you on your way to Washington.\nI can remember that Convention as if it were yesterday when we arrived\nfrom Long Beach. The hotel was crowded and I was told that they had\nWarm Springs on the 'phone begging you to run for Governor. After\nhours of pleading late that night you broke down and consented to run.\nYou know what happened you were elected and the Happy Warrier was\ndefeated. Mr. President, have you ever thought what would have happened\nif you had declined. The old saying is, \"there is a destiney that shapes\nour end, rough hew them as we may.\" Maybe you won't want to keep the badge\nbecause of the Tammany connection, but I am proud of being an old Tarmany\nman. My grandfater, after returning from the \"ar in 1812, joined the\nSociety. It has lost much of its power, but I know lots of good honest\nmen who did and still belong to it. Pometimes I laugh at Mr. Dewey. One\nwould think everything good, pure, etc., was in the Republican party.\nSeems to me that Platt Odell and a few more knew how to play the game.\nWe have a good vote in down state -- then the good and holy would get\ntogether and count the dead ones up state. Result another Republicen\nelected. Do you remember Berd in Caler. He was elected. I remember we\nparaded around 125th Street election night in celebration only to wake\nup next morning to find out the dead ones were counted again and Caler\nwas defeated.\nSometimes I run over to \"ashington. I have never visited the\nWhite House. After all the excitement is over would you let me know how\nI can see the inside of the White House.\nMr. President, I often wonder why you prefer Washington to\nthat grand old place at Hyde Park,\nTake good care of yourself and may the Good Lord watch over and\nguide you.\nSincerely yours,\n453 West Chester Street,\nLong Beach,\nJOHN F.

We received the news of the death of the General\nwith great sorrow. He was a great friend of mine over a period of years,\nand I always visited he and Mrs. Watson when I went to Washington.\nMy home, as you probably know, is on the southern shore of New\nBrunswick near Campobello, and I have known the President, as a friend,\nquite a long time.\nThe last year or two I have been in Ottawa as a dollar a year man\nbut expect to be through here before very long. We have large quantities of\nfish in New Brunswick caught in the area around Campobello where I am inter-\nested in a large fish plant. I have been sending certain fish, when they\nwere in season, to the White House for a number of years. First, I used to\nsend them to Colonel McIntyre, whom I had met at Campobello and knew very\nwell. Later I sent them to General Watson. What I would like to know now\nis, would it be alright for me to send them in your name, and you could pass\nthem around as General Watson did. The lobster season is on now, and I would\nlike to send some fresh lobster, if agreeable.\nWe were all so glad to read in the Press that the President came\nback from Yalta in robust health. His unprecedentedservice to mankind will\nnot be forgotten in a thousand years, and we think as highly of Mr. Roosevelt\nin Canada as the people of the United States, and we do hope that he will be\ngranted the best of health to finish the greatest job that was ever given to\nany statesman.\nWith kind personal regards to the President and yourself, I am,\nYours very truly,\nA.

I might say\nthese lobsters come from near Campobello and they should be very\ngood ones, so I trust you will all enjoy them.\nHoping to see you sometime when I am in Washington,\nand with kind personal regards to all, I am\nYours very truly,\nanywher A.

This\ntakes to you the President's, Mrs. Roosevelt's and\nmy grateful thanks for your thought of us.\nPa's death has left us all very sad.
