Mrs. Theresa D. Parker Page 2 December 24, 1956 Since this crucifix will be the first thing we will have acquired from you, I hope Mr. Seligmann will be kind hearted and let us have it on these terms, which are the best I have been able to secure. I know I can count on you to do your best to help put this over. I was afraid the gallery would be closed today, but I tried to call you just the same, because I wanted to make this offer before my father's conscience began to prick him so much he would change his mind, and so I am getting a letter off with a firm offer. My dad never reneges when he has committed himself, and so I wanted to commit him quick! Kind regards and best wishes, I hope you have a happy Christmas. Sincerely yours, Bob Jones Jr. President BJjr:pr P.S. I will be glad to have you call me collect on Wednesday after you have had a chance to talk to Mr. Seligmann.
