President Roosevelt has received much of the news from William Sturgis Bigelow, and wanted to write a quick letter to Anna Cabot Mills Davis Lodge to praise how Henry Cabot Lodge handled the work at the Republican National Convention in Chicago. Roosevelt enjoyed having the Lodges to dinner, and comments about the pleasant weather that Washington, D.C., has been having recently. He does “not believe any one else has ever enjoyed the White House” as he and Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt have enjoyed it.
