Theodore Roosevelt’s secretary informs George Rublee that Roosevelt is in Syracuse, New York, for his libel trial involving William Barnes. Rublee’s letter will be forwarded there. McGrath also explains that Roosevelt consulted with Juliet Barrett Rublee about having her letter published. She wrote that she did not have any objection, and so they gave it to the reporters.
