香港，1912年1月1日
尊敬的先生：
这里我给您介绍我的弟弟谢子修，他在1902年为中国反对清王朝统治的独立运动中出了力。李柏先生为运动筹集了资金。
如果我们见面，我将告诉您那次我们力图攻占广州并准备宣布成立共和国的所有情况。
我正等待您的介绍信，所以请直接给我发电报，或者通过我兄弟转告您的决定。
陈少白告诉我，他几天后要去上海。
您收到我12月31日的电报了吗？衷心祝贺您荣任第一届大总统，愿新生的中华民国繁荣富强。
谢缵泰 谨志
附：
我刚刚收到朋友容闳的来信，我随信附上一份他来信的副本给您做参考。
我郑重建议您发电报请他回国，他能在制定宪法时给您最大的帮助。
我也郑重建议您争取到美国民主党领袖詹宁斯·布莱恩先生的效力。
我认识他，如果您愿意的话，我可以写信给他。
