Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Archibald B. Roosevelt

Subject(s): Addams, Jane, 1860-1935

Theodore Roosevelt thinks the poem was great and agrees with its sentiment. He wishes Jane Addams’s admirers might send it to her, otherwise the poem will just have to be for the enjoyment of Archibald B. Roosevelt’s “warlike” family. Roosevelt encourages Archie to read the next issue of the Metropolitan where he will see something about his pacifistic and German-American father.
