Transcript

725 Michigan Blvd., Pasadena, California. January 3rd, 1935. Dear Senator and Mrs. Wheeler: I am sending the copy of “Good Medicine” that I promised you people last summer and I am also enclosing a copy for the President. Senator Wheeler said he would see that it is put into his hands. I hope you will enjoy Charlie’s letters. When things are coming too fast and you want to forget the worries for a time, let Good Medicine lead you back to Mon- tana and you will have a laugh which will re- lieve the nerve strain. I am sure it will be “good medicine” for you. Jack joins me in very best wishes to the Wheeler family. Sincerely, Senator and Mrs. B. K. Wheeler, 3757 Jocelyn St. N.W. Washington, D. C.
