Transcript
[Lutheran Church Board for Army and Nave letterhead] 5/29/[1918] Prof. Theo. Graebner, 3618 Texas Ave.- St Louis, [Missouri] Dear Brother, The Board was pleased to hear of your willingness to review and prepare for publication the manuscripts of sermons. They have been sent under separate cover. Realizing that you are a very busy man, we did not like to set a time limit for you, knowing that you will not delay us. Yet, we would like to have you look over one of the manuscripts from Rev. H.P. Eckhardt first and send us that, as we can make good use of it now. Hoping that this will be agreeable to you and thanking you for your kindness, Fraternally, H. Boester
