Part of a collection of telegrams and letters from J. Pierpont Morgan to Dr. William W. Baldwin between 1904 and 1910 (MA 8739.1-14). This collection is part of a much larger collection of letters to Dr. Baldwin from authors, English royalty and other luminaries of the period including Henry James, Samuel Clemens, William Dean Howells, Sarah Orne Jewett, Henry Cabot Lodge, Booth Tarkington, Edith Wharton and Constance Fenimore Woolson. See MA 3564 for more information on the complete Baldwin collection.
The letter is undated however it is possible it was written in April 1905. An letter in this collection, dated April 5, 1905, on the same hotel stationery, refers to his need of Dr. Baldwin's services for the women who have just arrived with him in Rome (MA 8739.2).
Written on the stationery of the Grand Hotel in Rome.
