Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to John B. Goff

Subject(s): Hunting, Pets, Roosevelt, Archibald B. (Archibald Bulloch), 1894-1979, Wyoming--Cody

President Roosevelt tells John B. Goff that he is very interested about what Goff has written to him about game, and says that when he is out of the presidency he will have to go on a hunt with Goff. He is sad to report, however, that both Shorty and Skip died last summer. Roosevelt will see if they can go on a hunt in fall.
