Letter from Elmer E. Kimberlin to Theodore Roosevelt
Elmer E. Kimberlin assures Theodore Roosevelt the people of Portland, Oregon, will kindly receive him. He asks about the various gifts he gave Roosevelt on previous occasions. Kimberlin wishes he could see Roosevelt in person, but a recent crippling accident prevents it. He proudly informs Roosevelt that he attended every militia drill and meeting during his eleven years of service and recalls their meeting where Roosevelt admonished him to keep fighting.
