Description

Franklin D. Roosevelt: Typed Letter Signed with Holographic Notation as New York Governor. May 4, 1931. Albany, New York. One page. 8" x 10.5". State of New York letterhead. To Milton A. Miller of Portland, Oregon. In this letter to teacher and politician Milton Miller, FDR writes (in part): "My duties as Governor unfortunately make it almost impossible to get as far west as Oregon during the next two years, particularly as on account of my mother's illness I am stealing a few weeks to go abroad and visit her. If you happen to be coming east, however, I shall be only too glad to see you and talk with you. The only things I happen to have covering anything I have done or said are those prepared for use in the last Gubernatorial campaign. I will have them looked up and sent to you. I appreciate your interest in my career very much and hope you will keep in touch with me." FDR added the handwritten notation "Personal" above the recipient's address. Original folds, small stain upper left corner, else fine.
