Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Charles H. Luscomb

Subject(s): Reunions, Scheduling, Scottish Rite (Masonic order)

Theodore Roosevelt appreciates receiving Charles H. Luscomb’s letter and invitation, but it will not be possible for him to take the Scottish Rite Degrees at the upcoming reunion. Several other engagements will prevent Roosevelt from attending the reunion, and the amount of work he has on hand prevents him from adding any more at present.
