President Roosevelt informs his son Ted that he recently went on a ride with his mother, Edith Roosevelt, beyond Sligo Creek where they enjoyed the beautiful scenery. On Saturday, the Roosevelts attended the wedding of Theodore Douglas Robinson and Helen Rebecca Roosevelt. On the following day, they visited Attorney General Knox at Valley Forge where the President gave an impromptu speech in support of efforts to build a memorial to George Washington.
