Emily Tyler Carow was glad to see that the Republican National Convention followed President Roosevelt’s wishes and nominated William H. Taft as the Republican candidate for president. She has recently received a letter from Emily Rosalie Snowden Marshall Tuck, who is hopeful that her husband, Judge Somerville P. Tuck, could be promoted to a position on the International Court of Appeals in Egypt, which has recently been left open by the death of Judge George Sherman Batcheller. Carow has a high respect for the whole Tuck family, and feels that Judge Tuck has done his job well. She hopes that Roosevelt will feel similarly and endorse Tuck.
