^[[Reg letter]]

March 31, 1953

President F.D. Patterson
Tuskegee Institute
Tuskegee Institute, Alabama

Dear Fred:

My failure to write, long since, about your leaving Tuskegee and your new work is in nowise due to any lack of interest. You know that, of course.

It will be a long time before your place can be filled at Tuskegee but I know that the new work will be satisfying in itself and will give you many new opportunities and outlooks. The Stokes Fund is very fortunate!

All good wishes.

Very sincerely,
