ALS as president signed “Wm. H. Taft,” two pages on two adjoining sheets, 5 x 6, Thirty-six West Forty-eighth Street letterhead, October 19, 1910. Letter to Kate Douglas Wiggin, the author of Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm, in full: “I have your kind note of Monday. Mrs. Taft and I greatly regret that our engagements prevent our accepting your kind invitation and seeing your play—I go back to Washington tonight—I hope, however, that the success of your play will keep it on the boards, so that when I come again to New York during the present season, I may have the pleasure of seeing it. With thanks from Mrs. Taft and myself for your courtesy and with the pleasantest recollection of our dinner together at the McKushans.” In fine condition, with a thin mounting strip along the interior hinge.
