TLS as president, one page, 7 x 8.75, White House letterhead, November 6, 1937. Letter to William H. Kelley, the president of the Merchants National Bank and Trust, Co., in full: "I have received your letter, enclosing Mr. Braun's. I wish you would tell him that he must not believe things he reads in the National Whirligig for the very simple reason that this news service and other similar columns are so grossly inaccurate in their statements, they literally are not worth the paper they are printed on." Roosevelt writes "Personal" at the top in his own hand. In fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
