Hill, George G. (George Griswold)

George G. Hill writes to Theodore Roosevelt he is pleased that Roosevelt will consider if he will publish his correspondences with Charles Dwight Willard. Hill believes it would be fair that Willard’s name were kept confidential. If Roosevelt agrees to make the correspondences public, Hill states he will handle all matters in duplication and publication. Hill notes things have greatly changed at the White House since Charles Dyer Norton was replaced by Charles Dewey Hilles.
