United States Attorney Stimson informs President Roosevelt about the funeral arrangements and his investigation into the suicide of Lulu Grover, who left all of her property to Roosevelt. Stimson writes that her only two interests appeared to be her two Angora cats and Roosevelt, as her apartment was filled with his photograph and books about him. Stimson also found in her apartment two letters from Roosevelt in which he thanked her for the gifts she sent to Roosevelt’s son, Theodore Roosevelt III, and asked her to stop sending gifts. Stimson arranged for her to be cremated and for an Episcopalian clergyman to read a service for her. Stimson and the Public Administrator agree that “this woman was one of those harmless cranks.”
