President Roosevelt asks C. Ward Crampton to wait until he returns from his Africa trip before asking him to answer his letter. He thinks it will probably not be possible to grant the request, as he will be shooting for the National Museum. He does not think he will be able to bring any trophies back other than the ones for that institution.
