TLS as president signed “D. E.,” two pages, 7 x 10.25, White House letterhead, March 7, 1956. Letter to Edgar Eisenhower. In part: “There is a very definite possibility that I shall not go to Augusta this spring. While exisiting plans are for me to have my usual week or ten days at the Club, there are a lot of things I want to do here that consume time and I have a feeling that my life might be just a bit easier if I did not go South. On the other hand, it is of course a place that I love, and I rather cringe from setting the precedent of skipping my regular visit…I badly need some help on my golf and a chance to practice fairly steadily. When I was taken ill, I was constantly shooting 80 or 81, and I was in about the worst putting streak I have ever had…Now I have found that the five months with no exercise to speak of has left me with no control of the club whatsoever, and the good shots are about one out of five. All of this would not be so bad except I have just one order from the doctors that I must never violate: ‘Never get angry!’” In fine condition, with punch holes to top edge. Eisenhower was particularly fond of Augusta National, and is memorialized there by the Eisenhower Tree, Ike’s Dam, and the Eisenhower Cabin, built by the club for Eisenhower after his election, and constructed to strict Secret Service security guidelines.
