April 3rd 1953.

Dr. Frederick D. Patterson,
Tuskegee Institute,
Tuskegee, Alabama.

Dear Dr. Patterson,

It is with regret that both Mrs. Wilkinson and I realize that we won't be seeing you at Tuskegee much longer, but we wish to congratulate you on your new position as Director of the Phelps Stokes Fund. I have been over in Cuba, or I would have written you sooner.

It hardly seems possible that Tuskegee will be able to find a replacement with all of your fine qualities.

Sincerely yours,

[[Signature]]
