Theodore Roosevelt was very interested to hear what Edmund Heller had to say of the square nosed rhinoceroses, and agrees that sometimes pamphlets should be published before larger works come out. He grants Heller permission to use information from his works about the habits of rhinos, and makes suggestions about where the rhino skins from his safari should be sent.
