Zustand: Fine. New York, October 6, 1919., 1919. Fine. - Over 70 words typed on his 10-1/8 inch high by 8-3/8 inch wide "23 Wall Street New York" creamy white stationery. The banker Thomas W. Lamont, who was then also the owner of the New York Evening Post, thanks the American lecture manager James B. Pond, Jr. for his "kind note about Sir Arthur Brown's lecture." He regrets that he can't attend as ''I happen to be tied up on that evening." He mentions not having received a letter from Pond about some "matter that you talked to me several months ago, and I suppose that the occasion is now past". Signed "T.W. Lamont". Folded vertically and horizontally for mailing, else fine. The American banker Thomas W. Lamont (1870-1948) was a senior partner of J.P. Morgan & Co. The first Freshman editor of "The Harvard Crimson", he graduated cum laude in 1892 and started working for the New York Tribune. He went on to work for several newspapers before joining the business firm of Cushman Bros. which eventually became Lamont, Corliss, and Company. Lamont continued to advance through the corporate, business and banking world, becoming director of the new Banker's Trust and then vice president of the First National Bank. In 1910, as a member of the Jekyll Island Club, Lamont, together with J.P. Morgan and a few other members secretly made plans for a central bank similar to the Federal Reserve System. He became a partner of J.P. Morgan and Co. in 1911 and purchased the New York Evening Post in 1918. Following WWI, he and Norman H. Davis were appointed as representatives of the Treasury Department for the Paris Peace Conference, drawing up the Dawes Plan and the Young Plan to reduce the amount paid by Germany. In 1920, Lamont undertook a mission to Japan to protect American financial interests in Asia, and consequently, those of the J.P. Morgan firm. Arriving in Japan in early March of 1920, Lamont lunched with Baron Iwasaki of the Mitsubishi zaibatsu, who was then Japan's wealthiest man. Although Lamont supported Japan's non-militaristic politics, he did not challenge Japan's efforts to influence Manchuria and, in fact, Ron Chernow claimed in his book "The House of Morgan" that Lamont later authored Japan's 1931 response to deceive the world about the Mukden Incident, a false flag operation which led to Japan's invasion of Manchuria. In a June 1999 article titled "Banker as Diplomat", Dr. Kilgroe, who taught U.S. History at North Carolina State University, wrote about the "uncommon instance of a private banker conducting official bilateral talks potentially of considerable national and international importance.".

Lamont, who was then also the owner of the New York Evening Post, replies to a note from the American lecture manager James B.
