President Roosevelt cannot accept N. J. Elwes’s invitation out of hand because his stay in England will be so short, and does not want to make any plans at present that are not connected to his delivery of the Romanes Lecture at the University of Oxford. However, he would like to see Elwes, along with Frederick Courteney Selous, St. George Littledale, Edward North Buxton, and John Guille Millais.
