Both President Roosevelt and Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt are both very pleased that Kermit Roosevelt has decided to remain at Groton for his full term rather than trying to enter Harvard early. Because Roosevelt believes Kermit “acted like a trump in this, in addition to acting wisely,” he says he will “stand any kind of a spree you want to embark on.”
