Frelinghuysen from New Jersey (1869-1948): “Referring to your note of 19 January, 1923, I take pleasure in advising you that the day after our delightful dinner at the Davidges. I took the matter of the battleship model up with Admiral Beuret, Chief Constructor, U.S. Navy, who has the matter under investigation at the present time. As I have been laid up with the grippe for the last five days, I don’t know what has developed, but am again taking the matter up with the Admiral Beuret. I shall again advise you relative to this matter as soon as I can get any definite information on the subject.” Typed on U.S. Navy Department letterhead, the letter is in fine condition.
