Theodore Roosevelt praises his son Archie for “the twenty-shot chicken” and notes that the meat gets bruised if you shoot birds on their body. He asks if Archie will be able to visit him and his mother at the Grand Canyon. He should ask his headmaster, H. D. Evans, if he can be allowed to go. Roosevelt is excited to visit his son at school and hopes they will have a chance to take a ten or fifteen mile ride into the desert.
