Description

Coolidge Congratulates New MA Rep. "The Two Years I Served in Our House Gave Me a Respect for That Body, For Its Democracy"

1p, 7.25" x 10.25”. A superb TLS, written to newly elected Massachusetts Representative Benjamin L. Young. Signed as Lieutenant Governor of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts by the future President Coolidge and signed "Calvin Coolidge." Flattened folds from mailing and dealer's notes in pencil on verso.

The letter reads:

"My Dear Mr. Young: - 

You seem to be chosen as one of the Representatives for the coming year. The two years I served in our House gave me a respect for that body, for its democracy, its sincerity and its broad sympathy that I shall always cherish. You will find there many friends whom you will always be proud to know and a spirit of service that will make you proud of Massachusetts.

Very cordially yours, 

Calvin Coolidge"
