Letter from John F. Kennedy to Frank Kent

Description

Letter written from John F. Kennedy to Frank R. Kent after learning that Kent was in the hospital. The letter is typed on United States Senate letterhead. Full transcription: January 7, 1958 Mr. Frank Kent Johns Hopkins Hospital Baltimore, Maryland Dear Frank: On my return to your office I called you and learned to my distress that you are temporarily in the hospital. Having had some experience with those gloomy places in the past, I hope you will soon be back on your feet - - but will not rush it. We are going to need men like you in circulation for a longtime to come. My very best wishes to you, and I look forward to seeing you in the near future. Sincerely yours, Jack Kennedy (John F. Kennedy) JFK:el
