President Roosevelt sends sympathy to his cousin-in-law Nannie Vance Roosevelt for her recent personal and legal troubles with her brother-in-law Constant Abram Andrews. He cannot exercise any power to interfere with the matter in any way, but assures Roosevelt that her husband, John Ellis Roosevelt, has the legal acumen to inform her of what should be done.
