Street,N.W., Washington, D.C. My dear Mr. Jenkins: I want to say to you
how delighted I was to receive your letter of March 6th, accompanied by
the beautiful examples of your success in transmitting photographs by
radio. I enjoyed very decidedly the opportunity that you gave me of
seeing the process of receiving these pictures and have found since that
a number of those whose attention I called to your work, took advantage
of the opportunity and were greatly pleased with the results. I can only
say that I appreciate to a certain extent, at least, the tremendous
energy and persistence that you have put into the development of this
new art and most heartily congratulate you on the success that you have
obtained. I am promising myself that if I come to Washington at any time
in the near future to make a visit to your laboratory and see you in
your own private lair. Hoping that such an opportunity will not be too
long delayed. I am, Sincerely yours, Geo. A. Hoadley. S. and A.

Washington, D.C. Dear Friend: The receipt of the Journal of the English
Historical Society a few days ago, in which is given a list of Friends
who have achieved distinction through inventions and in which your name
is given, shows that we have another point of contact in addition to our
exactly similar names, and that is, we are both Members of the Society
of Friends. If you ever get to Philadelphia, I hope you will stop in and
see me and arrange to have lunch with me, if possible. I have been much
interested in the considerable amount of publicity given your work
lately and I enclose a page from the Evening Bulletin, although I think
it more than likely you have seen it. With best wishes, Very truly,
Charles Francis Jenkins]
