[QUOTE="jdeleski, post: 2522056, member: 33307"] [font=Lucida Handwriting][size=2][center]August 1, 1933 [/center] Father J. P. Rucker Dear Father Rucker, Thank you for your letter of July 12th which expressed your desire to join my expedition to the South Pole. I found your recent experience in the priesthood to be very interesting and your inclination to focus on religion and faith-based improvements for society is most admirable. However, this venture is primarily a scientific and archeological endeavor, and we do not have the space nor resources to waste on such abstract and theological concepts as those related to a priest. To ask stalwart men of physical courage and bold adventure to engage in religious exercises or to cry like women in a confessional would be to mock the very spirit in which this great quest is being undertook., and so it is with great regret that I must decline your request. A man with such delicate and socially-conscious aspirations is not likely to find the cold, harsh and lonely environment of Antarctica to be very amenable, but I would be happy to share with you any findings that we discover so that you may study them at your leisure in more commodious surroundings after the hard work has been done. Sincerely, [/size][/font][b][font=Lucida Handwriting][size=5]James Starkweather[/size][/font][/b][font=Lucida Handwriting][size=5] [/size][/font][font=Lucida Handwriting][size=2]Expedition Leader [/size][/font][size=2] [b][font=Goudy Stout][center]Amherst Hotel[/center][/font][/b][font=Goudy Stout][center] [b][size=2]8th Avenue and 44th Street[/size][/b] [b][size=2][/size][/b][size=2][b][size=2]New York City, New York[/size][/b][size=2] [b] [/b][/size][/size][/center][size=2][size=2][b] [/b] [b][/b][/size][b][/b][/size][b][/b][/font][/size] [/QUOTE]
