April 2, 1916

Father,

This is such a difficult decision to make.

I am in Boston because I was selected with the first pick in the amateur baseball draft by the Boston Shipbuilders.

Their owner, a man named Matthew Willard, wrote me to tell me of the news. I have to admit it is extremely bitter-sweet.

I will make a final decision in a few days. The season starts for me on the 10th.

Love,

Your Son
