President Roosevelt tells Secretary of the Navy Bonaparte that Naval Chaplain Father William Henry Reaney has done good work in Brooklyn, and that he would like him to be kept on there if possible. He asks Bonaparte to find out if Reaney would like to go to Portsmouth or to remain where he is. If Reaney stays in New York for the present, Bonaparte can look into the matter at a later date and make the final decision.
