Letter sent to President Richard Nixon by Roy and Jean Veary

in P-A (31) President Richard Nixon, The White House, Washington, D.C. August 17, 1973. Dear President Nixon: Our admiration for you does not diminish, but grows. This must be one of the most trying times in your long career. Yet you have conducted yourself with dignity and honesty. We have always believed you to be a man of principle. We believe it now. If we may be philosophical, life seems so often to be difficult for a person with high principles. You have displayed the courage that does not abandon principles in the face of diffi- culties, thus setting a tremendous example for others. We have always thought it must be hard to wait for history's verdict. To feel that one is doing right and yet to wonder what history's judgment will be. We feel historians will be very kind to you for your great accomplishments as President. If the election were held tomorrow we would be proud and privileged to vote again for you. Sincerely, Roy and Jean Veary 23408 Collins St., Woodland Hills, Calif,, 91364
