Influential banker and lawyer who helped his friend and fellow Ohioan William McKinley gain the presidential nomination in 1896 and went on to become governor of Ohio; he served twice as U.S. ambassador to France, and died there in the embassy building he had bought and given to the United States. TLS, 1p, 7" X 10", Cleveland, OH, 1918 February 9. Addressed to Milenko R. Vesnitch. Very good. Friendly, chatty letter to a diplomat he had known during his first tenure in France, calling the Jugoslav minister "the ablest man in the diplomatic corps in Paris...." Item #22614
