I must, however, deny myself that privilege, as public duties prevent my leaving the state at that time. I beg that you will convey to Col. Thompson my most cordial personal congratulations, and heartfelt wish that he will live many more years to enjoy, as he has in the past, the respect and love of all who know him….” Intersecting mailing folds (vertical fold to last name), otherwise fine, clean condition.
