Mr. Luther Nelson,
Northfield, Minnesota

Dear sir;

I have received the enclosed letter which explains itself. I call your attention to the second paragraph. I am not quite sure whether your father was born in this country or not. Neither was I able to state as to your qualifications as an automobile driver. In all other respects, I gave you a favorable send-off.

Your truly,

Knute Nelson
