Written in blue ink on a 5 x 8” sheet bearing the printed “The White House – Washington” letterhead, the memorandum concerns a variety of personal and administrative matters, including books, appointments, and correspondence. In the upper right corner, Gallagher added the date “5/27/63” for filing purposes.

“Mary
