Letter from Joaquim Nabuco to Theodore Roosevelt

Brazilian Ambassador Nabuco writes President Roosevelt to apologize for the publication of a private letter, in which Roosevelt praises Nabuco’s speech on Augustus Saint-Gaudens. Nabuco recounts that he sent a copy to the Brazilian government and a friend. He is unsure which chose to ignore Roosevelt’s designation of the correspondence as “private,” presumably because Roosevelt is a well-respected public figure.
