Letter from Timothy L. Woodruff to William Loeb

Timothy L. Woodruff informs William Loeb about the case of Percy Frampton, a letter carrier in Long Island who was dismissed for alleged intoxication. Theron H. Burden, however, believes that it was because Frampton did not support Postmaster George Ripperger’s man for president of the Long Island City Letter Carrier’s Association. Woodruff asks if something can be done and encloses a statement by people on Frampton’s former route.

Letter from Timothy L. Woodruff to William Loeb

Timothy L. Woodruff discusses the political situation in New York. A clipping from the Brooklyn Eagle suggests that someone knew Woodruff had sent Loeb a copy of a speech he contemplated making to the Kings County Republican Committee. He wonders if the letter from Secretary of War William H. Taft to Herbert Parsons, regarding the presidential nomination, will make a difference outside the state of New York. Woodruff supposes that a large number of New York delegates will support Governor Charles Evans Hughes.
