Edward N. Brown is currently working as a Forest Ranger, but has heard that Theodore Roosevelt might be arranging a division of Rough Riders, and is interested in joining. He tells Roosevelt some of his history and credentials he has gained by working in the West, and feels that he would be a good fit. Even if Roosevelt cannot accept his application, he would appreciate a letter so that he can show his fellow rangers.
