Knopf, S. Adolphus (Sigard Adolphus), 1857-1940

S. Adolphus Knopf writes Theodore Roosevelt of his work collecting historical data for the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis, an association in which Roosevelt has been a vice-president of since its founding. Roosevelt has supported anti-tuberculosis movements for a long time and Knopf would appreciate hearing Roosevelt’s views and any stories from his anti-tuberculosis works that he might be willing to share alongside an autographed photograph for Knopf to reproduce.
