# Wall Response to March 22, 2022 Trump Privilege Letter 05-26-2022

* Archivist of the United States
* May 26, 2022
* The Honorable Donald J. Trump
* Dear President Trump:
* After consultation with the Counsel to the President and the Assistant Attorney General for the Office of Legal Counsel, and as instructed by President Biden, I have determined to disclose to the House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol (“Select Committee”) the Presidential records from our March 7, 2022, Notification that you identified as privileged in your letter of March 22, 2022, with the following limitations: As previously noted, the White House has reached an accommodation with the Select Committee to prioritize documents related to certain custodians, and NARA has determined that certain of these prioritized records are non-responsive; additionally, there are some records within the prioritized set as to which the White House has not yet completed its review. My staff will provide a complete list of the records subject to the prioritization agreement to your representatives, as well as nonresponsive records and records for which review is complete.
* Pursuant to President Biden’s subsequent instruction and my authority under 36 C.F.R. 1270.44(g), we will deliver the prioritized records for which review is complete and that are subject to your privilege claim to the Select Committee 15 days after this notification (which is June 10, 2022), unless prohibited by court order. Consistent with past practice, we will continue to produce to the Select Committee forthwith documents you did not identify, with particularity, as subject to an assertion of privilege in your March 22 letter.
* In appropriate circumstances, NARA may redact non-responsive content in otherwise responsive records.
* Sincerely,
* DEBRA STEIDEL WALL
* Acting Archivist of the United States

# Voice of Flowers/Alpine Flowers

ALPINE FLOWERS.
Meek dwellers 'mid yon terror-stricken cliffs,
With brows so pure, and incense-breathing lips,
Whence are ye?
 Did some white-wing'd messenger,
On Mercy's errands, trust your timid germ
To the cold cradle of eternal snows?
Or, breathing on the callous icicles,
Bid them, with tear-drops, nurse ye?
 Tree, nor shrub
Dare yon drear atmosphere. No polar pine
Uprears a veteran front. Yet there ye stand.
Leaning your cheeks against the thick-ribb'd ice,
And looking up, with trustful eyes, to Him
Who bids you bloom, unblanch'd, amid the waste
Of desolation.
Man, who panting toils
O'er slippery steeps; or, trembling, treads the verge
Of yawning gulfs, from which the headlong plunge
Is to eternity, looks shuddering up, And marks ye in your placid loveliness,
Fearless, yet frail; and, clasping his chill hands,
Blesses your pencil'd beauty. Mid the pomp
Of mountain-summits, towering to the skies,
And chaining the rapt soul in breathless awe,
He bows to bind you drooping to his breast,
Inhales your fragrance on the frost-wing'd gale,
And freer dreams of Heaven.
# Voice of Flowers/Evening Flowers

EVENING FLOWERS.
When shuts the rose at even tide,
 The lily folds its bell,
And every bud on vale or wild,
 Dream in their hermit cell.
Then, neath still twilight, dim and grey,
 Or where the taper stands,
Or meekly by the fireside ray,
 The flower of heart expands.
The influence of this favoring hour
 The watchful lover knows,
And marks its soft mimosa leaves
 Their modest charms disclose.
The husband by its fragrance cheer'd,
 Unlocks the cares of day,
Which, neath the warm, confiding smile,
 Like shadows, fleet away.
The fond exulting parent culls
 Its blossoms, rich and red,
And twines a garland bright with hope
 For each young slumberer's head.
While they who best its root protect,
 With thrilling breast shall prove,
How the sweet charities of home
 Fit for a heaven of love.
But when this heart-flower droops its head,
 And wearied mortals ask
The deep repose that nightly fits
 For morn's returning task,
Up springs another by its side,
 With calm and lowly eye,
A seraph-planted germ that holds
 Communion with the sky:
The flower of soul! Its breath is prayer,
 And fresh its balm-drops flow, To cleanse the ills that stain'd the day,
 And heal the wounds of woe.
While gently o'er its closing sigh,
 With blessed vision bends
That angel-guarded sleep, which God
 To his beloved sends.
# Voice of Flowers/Blossoms falling from Fruit-trees

BLOSSOMS FALLING FROM THE FRUIT-TREES.
The world doth take us captive with its wiles
Of vanity or pleasure. So our thoughts
Are scarce in unison with Nature's grief,
When her sweet blossoms fade.
 Yon stricken trees,
From whence glad Autumn gathereth plenteous store
Of ruddy apples for the wintry eve,
Resign their radiant robes, and rich perfume,
That made the orchard like a queen's levee.
And clad in russet garments, fleck'd with green,
Lamenting, teach the philosophic lore
Of brief prosperity.
 That lofty pine,
Which, like some feudal baron from his tower,
Did awe the neighboring peasantry of shrubs,
Deplores that they should see his boasted wealth
Stripp'd by each robber breeze.
A tint like snow, from the young Almond's charms
Strew'd lavishly around; while, sick at heart,
The Peach, despairing mother, sees her babes
Dead at her feet.
 Break forth in song, ye birds,
From your cool nests, or on the buoyant wing,
And be their comforters.
 Uphold their hearts
With cheering descant of the season's prime, When their bereavement shall be lost in joy.
Tell them that man, their culturer, oft beholds
His beauty and his pride, like theirs, depart;
But yet, from what he counted loss, doth reap
A more enduring gain.
 Yea, bid them bide
In faith and hope, the chastening of this hour,
Yielding their fragrance to the tyrant winds—
For God remembereth them.
 Lift high your strain,
Minstrels of Heaven, and ask the sorrowing trees
If those pale petals fell not, where would be
The glory of their fruitage? or the praise
Of the Great Master at the Harvest Day?
# Voice of Flowers/Changes during Sickness

CHANGES DURING SICKNESS.
I bow'd me down amid the race of life,
And let the fever-spirit have its will.
With wrench and screw the tissued nerves it tried,
And held from sleep the strained and burning eye,
So that the soft-voic'd watcher's toil was vain.
Two weeks passed by, and then His healing love,
Who knows the weakness of this mortal frame
Which He hath fashioned, bade me take my place
Again among the living.
 Strange and new
Seemed every wonted object. All around
Change had been busy. Boldly up had sprung,
Even to the eaves, the rich Convolvolus,
So long with patience water'd, even and morn,
Its clustering floral bells, profoundly blue,
Or crimson, fleck'd with white, thro' the broad leaves,
Were redolent of beauty. So, methought
I'd close my books, and study with the flowers,
Where sang the bee; and where, for aught I knew,
Might winged angels hover.
 Closely hid
In a dense grape-vine, was a cunning nest,
Which oftimes I had visited, to strew
Crumbs for the brooding mother. On that morn
When fell disease stalk'd near me with his chain,
Intent to smite me, tho' I knew it not,
I had withdrawn those curtaining leaves, and met
Her clear, bright eye.
 Now, all were fled and gone!
Yes, those small eggs with gladness and with song
Had travell'd forth to swell the tide of love
That bathes Creation in its boundless sea.
Oh! ever-watchful goodness, that doth work
Whether we sleep, or, 'neath the weight of pain,
Bow down in dreamy reverie; while time,
Unnoted, glideth onwards, nest and flower
Confess thee. Shall the thoughtless human heart,
So much indebted, e'er thy praise forget,
Whether beneath the sunshine or the cloud,
It takes its lesson from thy page divine?

# Voice of Conscience

Provenance: Colbung (1986), Yagan: The Swan River "Settlement", Australia Council for the Arts.
    Suddenly he starts, arising from the dead
    The ghost of Yagan stands, without a head!
    And thus addressed him in a guttural note,
    His voice proceeding from this severed throat:
    "Squatter! What brought thee here?
    Did hapless woe, or vile ambition teach
    Thy steps to rove? Or worse than these
    The cursed love of gold, alike the idol of the young and old,
    That crowns the sovereign, forms the noble star,
    Gilds the child's gingerbread, and glittering far
    Controls each circumstance of peace and war,
    And adorns the trappings of the bold hussar,
    Send thee, a sordid wanderer to a barren land
    Of rock and stone, or iron-stone and sand?
    On the Swan's banks shall rise no future home
    Nor these light sands support one splendid dome,
    On our rude mountains little else appears,
    Than man, and wood, the native and his spears."

# Voice of Flowers/Farewell to the Flowers

FAREWELL TO THE FLOWERS.
Go to your peaceful rest,
 Friends of a brighter hour,
Jewels on youthful beauty's breast,
 Lights of the hall and bower.
Well have ye done your part,
 Fair children of the sky,
We'll keep your memory in our heart,
 When low in dust ye lie.
Your gladness in our joy.
 Your smile beside our way,
Your gentle service round the bed
 Of sickness and decay,
Your rainbow on the cloud,
 Your sympathy in pain;
We'll keep the memory of your deeds
 Until we meet again.
Rest, from the blush of love;
 Rest, from the blight of care,
From the sweet nursing of your buds,
 And from the nipping air;
Rest, from the fever-thirst
 Of summer's noontide heat,
From coiling worm, and rifling hand,
 That vex'd your lone retreat.
If e'er ye thrilled with pride,
 When the admirer knelt,
Or on the lowly look'd with scorn,
 Which man for man hath felt,
If through your bosoms pure
 Hath aught like evil flow'd,
(Since folly may with angels dwell,)
 Rest from that painful load.
But not with grief or fear,
 Bow down the drooping head;
See! in the chamber of your birth
 Your dying couch is spread;
Go! strong in faith, ye flowers;
 Strong in your guileless trust,
With the returning birds, to rise
 Above imprisoning dust.
Hear we a whisper low,
 From withering leaf and bell?
"Our life hath been a dream of love,
 In garden, or in dell;
Yet wintry sleep we hail,
 And, till the trump shall swell,
To wake us on the vernal morn,
 Sweet friends, a sweet farewell!"

United States v. Jones
Three suits by Carrie Jones, Henry Taubenheimer, and James B. Montgomery, respectively, against the United States, for specific performance. Demurrers to the petitions overruled, and the United States appeals.
These cases are suits in equity brought against the United States under the recent act of March 3, 1887, extending the jurisdiction of claims against the government to the district and circuit courts of the United States. They are suits for specific performance, seeking to compel the United States to issue and deliver to the plaintiffs respectively patents for timber land, alleged to have been taken up and purchased by them under the act for the sale of timber lands in the states of California, Oregon, etc., passed June 3, 1878, (20 St. 89.) The petitions contain averments of performance of the conditions required by said act, the payment of the price of the lands to the receiver of the land-office, the giving of his certificates and receipts therefor, and the refusal of the government to issue patents to the petitioners as entitled thereto. They pray in each case for a decree-First, that the petitioner is owner of the land by virtue of the purchase; and, second, that the United States issue and deliver, or cause to be issued and delivered, in accordance with law, a patent granting and conveying the land purchased. The United States, by its attorney, demurred to the several petitions. The circuit court overruled the demurrers, and rendered decrees for the plaintiffs. From these decrees the present appeals were taken.
