Dear Col Hecker. [[note]] omit [[/note]]

I enclose herein a letter rec'd from Charles Moore and my reply.  Both are sent for the consideration of Mr. Donaldson and yourself.  After reading my letter to Mr. Moore kindly mail it to him.  Perhaps a letter form our committee to the Sec'y of War suggesting the appointment of a competent landscape architect would be proper and effective but on this score you are more competent to judge as you know the ways of the War Department.
