1967réf. 1518901967. Original typed letter signed by the thirty-seventh First Lady of the United States Pat Nixon. Duodecimo one page typed on "Mrs. Richard Nixon" letterhead addressed to Loretta Stuart. The letter reads in full "Dear Loretta Stuart: All of us were distressed to hear that you have had a set-back on your road to complete recovery. You will be in our thoughts and prayers! Tricia is a senior in college this year and Julie is a sophomore -- so your little girls are now grown. Time has flown since the days when you gave them the pretty hair styles and permanents. Louise Johnson wrote from London to say that she hoped to visit here during the Christmas season. I know she will be looking for you solve the problems she seems to find with hairdressers abroad. I haven't seen her since a year ago -- so am looking forward to her visit. With affection Pat." In near fine condition with spotting and light toning. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope stamp dated 11 Nov 1967. Thelma Catherine "Pat" Nixon 1912–1993 was the thirty-seventh First Lady of the United States serving alongside her husband President Richard M. Nixon from 1969 to 1974 and one of the most quietly resilient and extensively traveled First Ladies in the history of the office. Born in Ely Nevada to Irish immigrant parents she grew up in considerable hardship losing both parents before she was eighteen and working her way through the University of Southern California where she graduated cum laude in 1937 with a degree in merchandising. She met Richard Nixon in a Whittier California amateur theater production in 1938; he proposed on their first meeting and she married him in 1940 after two years of patient courtship. As First Lady she undertook an ambitious program of White House restoration and historical preservation acquiring significant works of American decorative art for the executive mansion and opening the White House grounds and gardens to the public for the first time. An instinctive and gifted diplomat in her own right she accompanied the President on his historic 1972 trip to China and his visits to the Soviet Union and eight Latin American countries becoming at the time of her death the most widely traveled First Lady in American history. The Watergate scandal and her husband's resignation in August 1974 — the only presidential resignation in American history — exacted a devastating personal toll and she suffered a stroke in 1976 from which she never fully recovered. Described by those who knew her as possessed of genuine warmth steely self-discipline and a private depth of feeling she rarely permitted the public to see Pat Nixon remains one of the more poignant and underexamined figures in the modern American presidency. unknown

The covers and some pages creased small stains on front cover and spine. Small tears at spine and spine creased. When the existence of tape recorded White House conversations became known in July of that year both Cox and the Senate Watergate Committee asked Judge Sirica to issue a subpoena for several "relevant and important" recordings and documents. The president refused to comply with the subpoenas citing executive privilege and national security concerns. On April 11 1974 by a 33–3 vote the Judiciary Committee subpoenaed 42 White House tapes of pertinent conversations. A week later Jaworski obtained a subpoena from Judge Sirica ordering Nixon to release 64 additional recordings in connection with his case. Nixon initially wanted to refuse both requests completely but James St. Clair and others advised him that such a stance would be untenable politically. Consequently Nixon agreed that transcripts of the tapes requested by the Judiciary Committee with certain passages edited or removed would be released but that Jaworski's request for tapes and other documents would be denied. Nixon announced this decision on April 29. Upon inspecting the transcripts Nixon shocked by several profanity-laced discussions among his inner circle ordered that every use of profanity be replaced by "EXPLETIVE DELETED." The next day April 30 some 1250 pages of transcripts edited by the president and his aides to remove portions deemed "not relevant" to the Watergate investigation were made public. The impeachment process against Richard Nixon was initiated by the United States House of Representatives on October 30 1973 during the course of the Watergate scandal when multiple resolutions calling for the impeachment of President Richard Nixon were introduced immediately following the series of high-level resignations and firings widely called the "Saturday Night Massacre". The House Committee on the Judiciary soon began an official investigation of the president's role in Watergate and in May 1974 commenced formal hearings on whether sufficient grounds existed to impeach Nixon of high crimes and misdemeanors under Article II Section 4 of the United States Constitution. This investigation was undertaken one year after the United States Senate established the Select Committee on Presidential Campaign Activities to investigate the break-in at the Democratic National Committee headquarters at the Watergate office complex during the 1972 presidential election and the Republican Nixon administration's attempted cover-up of its involvement; during those hearings the scope of the scandal became apparent and the existence of the Nixon White House tapes was revealed. Following an April 1974 subpoena from the Judiciary Committee edited transcripts of 42 taped White House conversations relevant to the Watergate cover-up were finally made public by Nixon. However the committee pressed for the audio tapes themselves and subsequently issued subpoenas for additional tapes all of which Nixon had refused. That same month Nixon also refused to comply with a subpoena from special prosecutor Leon Jaworski for 64 Watergate-related tapes. Ultimately on July 24 1974 the United States Supreme Court issued a unanimous decision against Nixon which ordered him to comply. On May 9 1974 formal hearings in the impeachment inquiry of Nixon began culminating on July 27–30 1974 when members of the Democratic-led Judiciary Committee eventually approved three articles of impeachment. These articles charged Nixon with: 1 obstruction of justice in attempting to impede the investigation of the Watergate break-in protect those responsible and conceal the existence of other illegal activities; 2 abuse of power by using the office of the presidency on multiple occasions dating back to the first year of his administration 1969 to unlawfully use federal agencies such as the Internal Revenue Service and the Federal Bureau of Investigation as well as establishing a covert White House special investigative unit to violate the constitutional rights of citizens and interfere with lawful investigations; and 3 contempt of Congress by refusing to comply with congressional subpoenas.3 These articles were reported to the House of Representatives for final action with 7 of the committee's 17 Republicans joining all 21 of its Democrats in voting in favor of one or more of the articles. Two other articles were debated in committee but were rejected. Based on the strength of the evidence presented and the bipartisan support for the articles in committee House leaders of both political parties concluded that Nixon's impeachment by the full House was a certainty if it reached the House floor for a final vote and that his conviction in a Senate trial was a distinct possibility. On August 5 1974 Nixon released a transcript of one of the additional conversations to the public known as the "smoking gun" tape which made clear his complicity in the Watergate cover-up. This disclosure destroyed Nixon politically. His most loyal defenders in Congress announced they would vote to impeach and convict Nixon for obstructing justice. Republican congressional leaders met with Nixon and told him that his impeachment and removal were all but certain. Thereupon Nixon gave up the struggle to remain in office and resigned on August 9 1974. U. S. Government Printing Office paperback
