Scope and content:

A.L.S. Boston. "My dearest little Pam," declares London Illustrated News article well intentioned but in poor taste. Reviews how idea of repeating GW oration grew - if any credit to be given, it belongs to Regent. Suggests paying J.A. Washington installments month early if they can save month's interest, $285. Hopes interests was only to be paid on first installment to J.A.W. Feels growing interest in N.Y. Ledger articles. Comments on D.P. Brown's idea re payments only $54,000 cash here - and 10% interest bonds, par value $14,000 but now rather low in market. Sees no objection to paying J.A.W. first installment on Dec. 5 or entire payment, if Mr. Riggs agrees. ER-9, p. 209
