Title A name given to the resource Lady Bird Johnson Letter (1975) Description An account of the resource A letter received by Stephanie James, a member of Brownie Troop 99, from Lady Bird Johnson, former First Lady of the United States (1963-1969). This letter was one of many which were microfilmed and stored in the time capsule created by the Girl Scout troops of Concord in 1975. Transcription: Stonewall, Texas March 10, 1975 Dear Stephanie, Your Bicentennial project sounds most interesting! Thank you for inviting me to share in it. As I look back on my White House days, those five years of turmoil and achievement, of triumph and pain, I feel amazement that it happened to me, and gratitude that I had the opportunity to live them and strongest of all - out of all the trips that I made and all the people that I met - a deep, roaring faith in and love for this country. As for my own most rewarding time as First Lady, there were moments, myriad and varied -- but I guess on balance the most rewarding was the feeling that I had come to know our country in all its diversity, its beauty and its problems. As for what was least appealing for me, it was trying to assign priorities -- so many obligations and pressures jostled each other for every hour of time and it was frustrating to have to turn my back or do only poorly many things I really cared about. With best wishes to you and your Troop members, Sincerely, Lady Bird Johnson Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Claudia Alta "Lady Bird" Johnson Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1975 Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource image https://www.sc.concordlibrary.org/files/original/5426/1975_ribbon.jpg d378d5067aa81c8494c909188a49e967 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
