MAGAZINES AND NEWSPAPERS

Quotations from magazines are indicated either in the text or Notes. For contemporary newspaper accounts of the events covered I have relied largely upon the Washington
Post,
New York
World,
and New York
Times.
I have also made use of Associated Press, United Press, and International News Service dispatches. It would have been a cumbersome business to cite these sources continually, and as I have generally interwoven accounts from the various papers and wire services, a difficult business also. For these reasons I have rarely mentioned which paper or wire service acted as source for any given incident. In almost every case, however, the report of the given incident appeared either on the day it took place or, more regularly, on the following day.

MANUSCRIPT COLLECTIONS

A great part of the contents of this book was garnered from the manuscript collections of the Library of Congress in Washington. Primarily, of course, I have made use of the Woodrow Wilson Collection. This consists of literally millions
of items ranging from yellowed newspaper accounts of the clothing tastes of Mrs. Edith Galt to letters sent the ex-President in S Street by indignant relatives desiring money with which to effect a move to a neighborhood where the children could mix with a better class of playmates. In the collection, to name items that come readily to mind, are: the large manila envelope Senator Fall bore to the bedside of the President on December 5, 1919, with the scribbled writing of the First Lady upon it; hundreds of calling cards left at S Street when the former President was dying; many pictures of children named for the President and sent to the White House by proud parents; the reply of the Queen of England to the First Lady's “bread and butter” note sent after the visit to Buckingham Palace in 1918; an indignant account by John Randolph Bolling of how an architect overcharged for advice about constructing a home (which was never built) for occupancy after the President's term of office ended; flowers worn by Mrs. Galt to dinner with the President and later pressed and put away so that today, nearly half a hundred years later, the color is still true; bills for two and three dollars periodically submitted by a man who refinished the tips of billiard cues used by Mrs. Wilson and guests at S Street; a report by Cary Grayson describing blood tests given the late President (this to record for history that the extremely widespread story that Woodrow Wilson suffered from a venereal disease was untrue); a sadly disjointed letter dictated by the President to the First Lady early in his illness and thanking the Mayor and City Council of Carlisle, England, for honors granted; a series of violently worded letters dictated to John Randolph Bolling and signed by the ex-President but not sent at the behest of Mrs. Wilson (the letters might well have been found embarrassing if they ever appeared in print: “Dirty little liar” applied to the President of France was a typical example); a long exchange of notes with a man who wanted to put up a statue of Woodrow Wilson in the courtyard of an apartment house in the Bronx, New York (photos of proposed bust after bust were rejected by S Street, but finally after Woodrow Wilson's death the man did put up a bust which, with nose defaced, can still be seen in the Wilson Apartments across from DeVoe Park in the Bronx); and, finally, notes sent from the Library of Congress requesting the return of mystery novels long overdue.

The collection, for my purposes in covering this
circumscribed portion of Mr. Wilson's life, can be broken down into three segments. First, there are nearly a score of enormous scrapbooks, each weighing more than fifty pounds and containing material impossible to classify under any single description. The books became the career of Mrs. Wilson's brother Bolling after the ex-President died. (Before his death, Bolling had worked on them when not handling the correspondence for his brother-in-law.) Bolling continued his labors on the books until well into the days of World War II. The material dates from about the time Mrs. Galt met the President but is largely concerned with the S Street period. Anything that appealed to the ex-President during his residence in S Street is there, as is material which seemed of value to Bolling or his sister. A copy of Mrs. Wilson's letter to Senator Lodge telling him his presence at the funeral was not desired is there; next to it is Lodge's reply. A picture published in a magazine of the '20's and showing a man who looked like the President wearing a pith helmet in a desert setting is in the books, along with a typed note by Bolling saying this is
not
Mr. Wilson. Numerous newspaper clippings are there; so is a long description of the ex-President's last illness, written by Bolling at his sister's direction. Also, invitations sent Mrs. Wilson for White House dinners in the '30's and '40's, Mrs. Wilson's ticket to the 1933 Kentucky Derby, and pictures taken by amateur photographers of Mr. Wilson on one or another of his auto rides. Neatly pasted in are the scores of many games of Canfield played by the Wilsons. At one point he was 50,000 points ahead of her.
