President Roosevelt asks Owen Wister to tell C. Grant La Farge about the request from Rowland Gibson Hazard, and to explain why it means it is impossible for him to visit Rhode Island to see La Farge and Wister. Roosevelt does not feel he could visit Rhode Island and not go to some of the places he has been invited to attend, but it is impossible for him to make any more speeches.
