Extract from a letter from Ella Howard Bryan to Richard Watson Gilder
Ella Howard Bryan, who wrote under the pen name of Clinton Dangerfield, is a fan of President Roosevelt, although the letter only refers to “the President.” She has composed a poem entitled “The Man of Destiny,” based on the life of Roosevelt. She declares that she would not want to meet Roosevelt for fear, although she admires him. She mentions how Roosevelt has reached the heights of life, while she is “still very much on the plains.”
