Description
English:

A typewritten letter. The header reads The White House, Washington, July 7, 1936. The body reads Dear Senator Schwellenbach: Please accept my thanks for your courtesy in sending me a certificate of membership in the Whitman Centennial, Incorporated. But for the labors of Marcus Whitman and his associates the history of our Great Northwest might have been written in entirely different terms. The work which Whitman did in establishing the mission at Waiilatpu contributed not a little to the permanent development for the United States of the old Oregon Territory.

I send hearty felicitations to all who participate in the Centennial celebration. Very Sincerely yours, Franklin D Roosevelt Honorable Lewis B Schwellenbach, United States Senate,

Washington, D.C.
