[0:01] Hello.
[0:03] Hello.
[0:04] How are you coming on that draft?
[0:07] Mr. President, I'm on page nine.
[0:09] I wasn't leaving enough space in between, and I had to start over, but I'm going really fast now.
[0:13] Take your time.
[0:14] Take your time.
[0:15] As a matter of fact, we need 8.30 is plenty of time.
[0:18] When you finish it, if you could bring it over to the Lincoln sitting room, I'll be here, and then I'll take a quick look to see if there's any change we need to be made.
[0:28] You may not like my spacing, but we'll take a look.
[0:30] No, no, no.
[0:31] It doesn't make any difference.
[0:32] It does not?
[0:33] No, no, no.
[0:33] It isn't all that important.
[0:35] Just, you know, run it off, because I can read it either way.
[0:39] And don't worry about it, because you haven't done one before.
[0:41] Don't let her worry you.
[0:42] All right, I won't.
[0:42] You just finish it.
[0:43] Don't rush too much.
[0:44] And I'll see you about 8.30.
[0:46] Thank you.
[0:47] If that works out, or 8.45, whenever it is.
[0:49] Okay?
[0:49] Yes, sir.
[0:50] Fine.
[0:51] At Lincoln Setting Room, whenever you get there.
[0:53] Okay?
[0:53] Yes, sir.
[0:54] Bye.
[0:54] Bye.
[0:56] Bye.
