President Roosevelt agrees with his son Archie that it is good that “Taft, Hughes, and Groton” were victorious. He updates Archie on his brother Quentin, who is doing very well at football and tennis, and is doing well in school. Kermit Roosevelt is home now. Roosevelt took a fall on a “scramble walk” in Rock Creek Park but was uninjured.
