Memorandum from Theodore Roosevelt
Click on image to zoom in
Theodore Roosevelt writes to the proofreader of his book Fear God and Take Your Own Part to find someone competent to go over the manuscript and remove all superfluous u’s. He also says to stop publishing until this is done because he does not want the ridiculous spelling attributed to him. This was cut from a proof of the book.
