Dear General Marshall:1 On February seventh Mamie and I have scheduled a Reception for the Judiciary and the Military, and I am enclosing with this note a formal invitation to you and Mrs. Marshall.2 I write to assure you that under no circumstances should you consider coming to Washington for the affair, much as we should like to see you. I am sure you know just how exhausting and frustrating such affairs can be. On the other hand, I did not want to overlook sending you an invitation, if there was the slightest chance you might like to come.3
With warm personal regard, As ever
