Description

"In this, my last week in office, I am stirred by memories of old battles"

TLS as president, one page, 6.75 x 8.75, White House letterhead, January 17, 1969. Letter to longtime Oklahoma Congressman Tom Steed, in full: "In this, my last week in office, I am stirred by memories of old battles—and old friends who stood at my side throughout them all. You are one of those friends. My admiration and affection for you will never diminish. I thank you and salute you." Johnson adds a handwritten postscript: "I believe in you and love you and trust you. Count me in all the way all the time." In fine condition.
