Chandler Egan Signed 1935 Typed Letter on Personal Letterhead 8/26
Letter reads:Dear Mr. Jacobus,
i am very much flattered by your letter of August 17th inviting me to be one of the Referees during the Ryder Cup matches at Ridgewood on September 29th and 29th. I should like very much to accept but do not feel that I can do so.
I am leaving here in a few days on my way east
for what is already planned to be a longer and more complicated trip than I would like. Under the circumstances I do not feel that I should spare the added time and expense involved in being at Ridgewood on the dates mentioned
Believe me, I do not enjoy giving up the prospect of enjoying the Ryder Cup matches from a ringside seat or the privilege of cooperating with your organization. I have delayed answering this letter of yours for a day or so in order to think it over and see if I could manage to accept but my conscience won the battle.
Thanking you again for your invitation and
wishing you continued success, I am
Sincerely yours,
Chandler Egan
