 HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.

February 9, 1909.

Richmond, Va.:

Dear Madam,—I am in receipt of your letter of the 8th inst., relating to the matter of restoring to the "Cabin John Bridge" the name of Jefferson Davis, and beg to assure you that I will take great pleasure in aiding you to the accomplishment of your purpose, in any way possible.

Yours very truly,

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, U. S.

February 12, 1909.

113 Third Street, South, Richmond, Va.:

My Dear Mrs. Robinson,—Referring to your letter of recent date, having reference to the restoration of the name of Mr. Davis to the "Cabin John Bridge," I beg to say that it will give me great pleasure to co-operate with my associates in Congress in an effort to induce the War Department to replace Mr. Davis' name on that structure. I quite agree with you that it would be better to restore it through the War Department than by legsilation.

Very respectfully yours,

COMMITTEE ON MILITARY AFFAIRS.

113 South Third Street, Richmond, Va.:

My Dear Madam,—I have your letter with regard to the restoration of the name of President Davis to the "Cabin John Bridge," and can assure you that I will take pleasure in doing what I can to bring about this restoration.
