One letter from Carlos J. Moorhead to Grace Leadingham dated August 21, 1974. Moorhead does not think Congress will vote for Nixon's immunity; however, he wishes for Congress to get back to the important issues. He writes, "I do not think that there is a chance that Congress will vote immunity for former President Nixon, but I hope that the Special Prosecutor will ... not bring acase (sic) against him in court."
