The Honorable Randy J. Holland
The Honorable Donald W. Lemons
The Honorable Harry L. Carrico
Mr. John Barr

My Dear Friends,

As the work of the term comes to its close, please let me thank you for coming to my chambers to tell me of the honor of being the first recipient of the Chief Justice John Marshall Medal.

It will be a great privilege to be with you in Richmond, Virginia on September 24, 2005. As the event draws near, we will correspond and cooperate on making it a significant occasion for the Medal, for the commemoration of John Marshall, and for our heritage of freedom.

Sincerely,
Anthony Kennedy
