Theodore Roosevelt thanks Reverend Schick for his letter about his Church and family. Roosevelt is glad to hear Johnny is going to school, that James is working in the law, and that Mary runs the library in the Soldiers’ Home. He sends regards to Mrs. Schick and wishes he could help Schick now, but he has many demands on him.
