Letter from Calvin Coolidge to John Coolidge

Date: April 11, 1932

Context: Calvin Coolidge gives his son financial advice


Dear John:-

You looked so badly when you were here that I feel worried about you. 

If anything is worrying you you should write me or come to tell me about it. 

Do not give any thought to your investments. They may come out all right. One reason they were not what you needed is that they take your mind from your work. Get out doors all you can and walk. 

Your father
