President Roosevelt sends Mark Sullivan a copy of his manuscript, which he says he would be glad to have presented to Robert J. Collier as a Christmas present. The manuscript is typed, with some handwritten changes, and has Roosevelt’s signature. He may make some further small changes, but does not think they will be important. After writing the letter, Roosevelt mentions having discovered his first draft and encloses the document.
