Vice President Roosevelt attests to service delivered by R. H. Langford during the campaign the previous fall. Roosevelt believes that Langford is an upright and capable man, but he cannot speak to his ability as a potential Indian Agent. If Langford is chosen, Roosevelt joins Senator Millard, Congressman Neville, and others who “testify on his behalf.”
