Theodore Roosevelt tells R. M. Johnston that his speech to the American Historical Association on December 27th is already complete and will “not admit of my dealing with military history.” However, Roosevelt is interested in speaking to Johnston, either by attending a section that Johnston had mentioned or inviting Johnston over to William Sturgis Bigelow’s home on December 28th.
