TLS, one page, 8 x 10.25, The Assistant Secretary of the Navy letterhead, May 27, 1920. Letter to William H. Kelley, in part: “I attended a conference of a number of Democrats from all over the country at the Democratic National Committee, at which the question came up of raising a comparatively small amount to see the party treasury through the pre-Convention expenses. It was felt that the organization should be turned over entirely free of obligations. I undertook at this meeting to raise about $10,000 in up-state New York, and I can see no way of doing so except by writing to about twenty prominent up-State Democrats to help me in carrying this through. I am, therefore, asking you quite frankly as one of the twenty to make a real effort in your locality to raise a minimum of $500.” Roosevelt adds “Personal” and the salutation in his own hand. In fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
