<p><b><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial; color:windowtext'>WOODROW WILSON </span></b><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:windowtext'>Brief TLS, 1p, 8vo, Washington, Nov 27, 1918. On White House letterhead to Grant Squires, a NY attorney who handled Wilson’s investments while he was President. In full, <i>“You are a genuine sport and patriot, and I thank you warmly for your letter of November 23rd...” </i>Boldly signed. Light general toning; light feathering; o/w VG/Fine. Accompanied by original transmittal envelope. Squires had written to Wilson two weeks earlier asking for a commission in the service, and Wilson wrote back asking him if he would give up the idea of a commission. This letter apparently references this exchange.</span></p>
