William Augustus Patton has investigated the complaint by Charles H. Lee, and sends William Loeb copies of the Pennsylvania Railroad’s reports. Patton believes that Loeb’s instructions were fully carried out by railroad employees, and that Lee’s reports of the journey are misleading and untrue. He assures Loeb that the railroad is happy to provide services for the President.
