Mr. Carl G. Fisher,
Miami Beach; Florida.
My dear Mr. Fisher:
Miss Roesiter has just paid me a
very pleasant call and has delivered to
me your letter of January 6th, and handed
to me for Mrs. Harding Mrs . Fisher 's
letter of the same date. These letters
have been accompanied by the very attractive
printed matter revealing the beauties and
lure of Miami Beach, the Flamingo Hotel
and your community. It is very tempting.
I wish I could come and make a long stay.
The simple truth about the matter is ,
however, that my plans will not admit of
such an enticing program. Vie are coming
South soon and I am expecting to get a
rather hurried glimpse of Miami and the
Beach. We shall not be able to stay, and
the nature of my travels is such that I
will not be in a position to accept any
courtesies of a public nature . I very
deeply appreciate your interest in extending
your tender of courtesy and hospitality. If
the circumstances were different I should
certainly rejoice to accept . As matters •
stand I can do no more than express a
. I
I
_J
genuinely grateful appreciation.
Hoping to have the pleasure of
meeting you personally, I am,
Very truly yours,
WGH-1BU
