Dear Mr. Nicholls:
ave I write to say that I have not en!ns"
tirely given up hope of the passage
^n" of the Burnett Immigration Bill
through the Senate at this session, and
urfc to ask you to keep a watch out for
gt. the same if it should be passed in
her that body and come back to the House
for action on the Senate Amendments.
I know the earnestness and zeal
with which you have always cham-?ioned
this Bill, and the fact that I
!ss have relied on you whenever the battle
has been on for the bill causes me to
gh, invoke your continued active aid if
re- the Bill should reach the House again
i a towards the close of the session,
ich. It may be of purpose of the enemies
of the Bill to try to get it through
ar the Senate and before the House when
its friends are not on their guard, and
. in that way either defeat its passage
' or postpone it until the next session.
The bill has had no more loyal supand
porter than yourself, and I, therefore.
Tew write you as one of our trusted lieuto
tenants in securing this much needed
C. legislation.
Wkh best wishes, I a.-<i,

Dear Sam:
I want to thank you in behalf of
,pen the citizenship of Alabama and the
1 e' South generally for the splendid work
P * you did on the Military Committee
01 toward securing relief for our flood
sufferers. There are a number of
ned points in the South where there is
ieP. great distress, and 1 know of no one
hil- who was more active to relieve this
K. unfortunate situation than yourself.
Your splendid work in this matter is
due largely to your personal poput'ne
laiity with the members of the Comfor
mlttee, and the House of Representahor
tives. During the six years that I
)pa- lu ve been a member of the House of
Representatives who has made more
personal friends and accomplished
"" more than you have?
Sincerely your friend,
