The President looks a great deal better than he did last summer. he is fleshier than he was when he reviewed us at Harrison’s Landing and looks younger. I believe his health is better than it was in the summer. He is very tall and rather plain looking but never mind the looks, for they say beauty is only skin deep...” Fine.
