Theodore Roosevelt does not know why McCoy did not receive his letter and thinks they should also get in touch with Robert D. Carey. Roosevelt expresses his opinion to Mrs. Thorne Hitchcock that if President Wilson had “one ounce of the spirit” of Andrew Jackson or Zachary Taylor that they would already be at war. Roosevelt mentions that his three sons in the United States have been trained at Plattsburgh Camp.
