Dr. Henry Kissinger:

Altho I am aware that you receive countless letters and that this one has little chance of reaching your attention, I will feel better by getting it off my mind. Many times I have been tempted to write to express my thanks to you for the magnificent contributions you have made to our country by your patient and exceptional judgement.

We are here during the winter months and our nearest NBC station is channel 5, W. Palm Beach. The head of their news staff is Bill Gordon, who last year took the liberty of criticizing one of the very few instances in which you were unable to perform a miracle. I am enclosing copy of a letter I felt compelled to write at that time, and I still feel the same way.

Again, my grateful thanks to you for your inestimable assistance to our country and to each of us. We are sorry the Democrats won, but you have earned any rest you can get.

Dr. Henry Kissinger,
Secretary of State,
Washington, D. C.

On
Thanksgiving

We thank thee, Lord,
For fields of grain
Gold and ripe
from summer's rain,
For hillsides bright
With scarlet trees
That rustle
in the autumn breeze,
For friends so dear,
For those we love,
For all things sent
from heaven above...
We thank thee, Lord.
