President Roosevelt invites Bishop Satterlee and his wife, Jane Lawrence Satterlee, to dine at the White House to meet the Bishop of London, Arthur F. Winnington Ingram. Roosevelt also informs the bishop about his plans to attend early Sunday services. If the president does attend the early services, he can say a word of greeting to the Bishop of London, but it would not be a speech and would only be “two minutes’ greeting.”
