Letter from Laurence James Oliphant to Theodore Roosevelt
Laurence James Oliphant had previously hoped to visit President Roosevelt last year, but was struck with a severe illness which he is only now recovering from. In going through the letters that accumulated during his illness, he has heard that Roosevelt has been making plans for his safari in British East Africa after leaving the presidency, and offers some recommendations of places that could offer good hunting. Oliphant hopes to renew his acquaintance with Roosevelt when Roosevelt returns from his safari, and is sorry that he could not have been more use sooner.
