He encloses a letter from Yale President James Angell regarding a visit by Smuts. In part, ''...I send you...a letter from President Angell...and a letter of mine...that you may forward both...as you may deem wise and useful...With very best wishes...Wm H Taft''. Single page letter measures 8'' x 10.5''. Very good.
