June 5, 1922
My dear Gertrude,
What has become of my old friend "gentle little Gertrude Weil"? Is it she who "purifies politics" by forcibly destroying marked ballots destined to stuff other ballot boxes? Well - I always knew she had the courage of her convictions and I am proud of her - but I do want to know the name of the man whom she caught red-handed with the goods. I believe it will do a lot of good and certainly teach women to watch for fraud.
