September5, 1931. Mrs. Ethel M. Bielenberg Deer Lodge ,Montana. Dear Mrs. Bielenberg: I delayed writing you until I had a conference with Mr. Ritch. I have just re- turned from Lewistown an d[sic] Great Falls and I feel sure that everything will come out as we want it to. It will be impossible for me to go to Helena now as we are leaving for California tomorrow so that Jack may be in time for school. I feel that my trip to Montana has been most successful and although I have not seen the Lincoln model I know that right will prevail. It was unusual for me to meet anyone and feel a friendship as strongly as I do for you. Let us keep in touch and meet soon again. Sincerely, [Transcribed by Lauren B. Gerfen, 2012-11-26]
