Title	Ritter, T.T 1921-11-07
Abstract	Letter to Eugene V. Debs, 11/7/1921. Assures Eugene V. Debs that he has intended to write him for a long time to comfort him during his imprisonment. Says that his heart often aches for Eugene V. Debs. Tells Eugene V. Debs that that he has been a great inspiration ever since he heard him speak in Spokane, Washington in 1904. Informs Eugene V. Debs that when he clasped Eugene V. Debs's hand that day that he knew he was a socialist. Remarks that he later had the chance to hear Eugene V. Debs speak in San Francisco, California and Williamsport, Pennsylvania. Remarks that he is a 50 year carpenter who is a bachelor. Tells Eugene V. Debs that he just received the November issue of the NATIONAL RIP-SAW and will prize it forever since it is a special edition in honor of Eugene V. Debs. Says that he would gladly take Eugene V. Debs's place if that was possible. Mentions that about a year ago that he wrote to the AMERICAN APPEAL, the President, and the Attorney General, telling all of them that he would take Eugene V. Debs's place in prison so that Eugene V. Debs could continue his work on behalf of the working classes.
