President Roosevelt tells Attorney General Moody that he would like Colonel Mosby to take an enclosed letter from Mr. Stratton and investigate the conditions in Alabama. Roosevelt does not think Mosby would need to meet Stratton, but he wishes for Mosby to meet with Judge Jones. He also says that Mosby should talk to Postmaster General Wynne before he goes, as the matter is related to the post office.
