Letter from Alexander von Wolffersdorf Leslie to Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt

Alexander von Wolffersdorf Leslie informs Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt about the qualifications of Waldo D. Parker as a tutor for her son, Archie. Parker has held several positions teaching mathematics, science, and Latin. Although Parker has “the misfortune not to have a very robust or impressive physique,” he is an excellent teacher and tutor. William Emlen Roosevelt’s son, Philip, will be tutored by Parker as well, and Leslie asks Roosevelt if she knows of any others who might like to engage Parker as a tutor.
