President Roosevelt regrets that he will not be able to attend the meeting of the Religious Education Association on February 12, 1909, which William Lawrence invited him to, as he will be in Kentucky rather than Illinois. Roosevelt responds to several questions Lawrence asked him in the personal letter he wrote, and asks Lawrence in turn if he and his wife would be able to visit the White House on February 4 or 5.
