Letter from Lee Stack to Lewis Morris Iddings
British Army Officer Lee Stack informs American Consul General Iddings that on the orders of the Sirdar, Sir F. R. Wingate, Stack has commissioned the creation of six pairs of mosquito boots of various sizes for President Roosevelt and his son Kermit Roosevelt. Wingate hopes that Roosevelt will accept the boots as a small personal offering. Stack will bring the boots to Iddings once they are complete.
