7 [[pre-printed]] Thomas J. Watson,Jr. Old Orchard Road, Armonk, New York 10504 [[/pre-printed]] April 2, 1974 Dear Dillon, Thank you for all your help yesterday in Congressman Mahon's office. I have called Paul Austin and he is in agreement with our nomination of Dr. Murray Gell-mann so I have written the attached letter to the Chief Justice. I take it this completes the report of the Nominating Committee and I am deeply grateful to you and your associates for making it such a painless chore. I am particularly enthusiastic about Murray Gell-mann. It is a top selection and the staff is to be congratulated. Sincerely, [[signature]] Tom [[/signature]] Dr. S. Dillon Ripley Smithsonian Institution Washington, D.C. 10560
Transcription Notes:
I'm guessing that the signature is that of Thomas J. Watson Jr. and he just signed it, Tom.
