Description

TLS as president signed “D. E.,” one page, 7.25 x 10.5, personal White House letterhead, December 12, 1957. Letter to Gerald D. Morgan, special counsel to the president, in full: "I doubt that I shall be back from Paris by the time your birthday anniversary rolls around, so I send you this premature, but most sincere, note of felicitations and good wishes. I hope the year ahead will be for you—and for all of us—slightly less wearing than 1957, and that it brings you much personal happiness and satisfaction." In fine condition. Morgan served in a few capacities as part of the Eisenhower administration—as an administrative assistant from 1952 to 1955, as special counsel to the president from 1955 to 1958, and as Eisenhower's deputy assistant from 1958 to 1961.
