On behalf of Theodore Roosevelt, his secretary confirms receipt of Homer P. Dudley’s letter asking to write an introduction for his book. Roosevelt is unable to write such an introduction, as he would feel obligated to do the same for the hundreds of other requests he receives and would offend those he has already refused.
