Letter from Frank Swigart to Theodore Roosevelt
Frank Swigart believes both Frederick and Charles B. Landis have conspired to oust him as referee because they are sure it would cost the Republicans votes. Swigart wishes to know whether the Landises truly have a letter from President Roosevelt to Judge Albert B. Anderson asking to have him removed from the position. He assures Roosevelt that he is fair and asks that he be kept as referee for the upcoming election. He concludes the letter by noting that he voted for Abraham Lincoln and served in the Army from 1861 to 1864.
