Theodore Roosevelt has sent William Austin Wadsworth’s note to Archie. Mrs. Roosevelt has a grandchild visiting, as Ethel and Dick are in Paris. Roosevelt wishes it were possible for him to get up to see Wadsworth, but he fears, “a cob is about the type of animal I am now good for.” Roosevelt has never seen such a political mix up as at present.
