- In a letter dated September 24, 1940, William H. Murray responds to criticism from Mr. S. B. Whitaker for supporting Willkie. Murray defends his decision by referencing historical figures who were initially criticized but later honored for following their conscience. He expresses concern that the New Deal and a potential third term for Roosevelt will lead to the downfall of the Republic. Murray denies being paid for his actions and emphasizes his commitment to fighting against the New Deal.
