Theodore Roosevelt is “extremely pleased” that George Otto Trevelyan liked his letter. He is glad to receive Trevelyan’s letter as he worried his letter was “priggish and dull.” Roosevelt trusts Edward Grey and permits Trevelyan to share his letter with Grey. He asks if Trevelyan wants the supplement to one of his letters in which he talks about King of Great Britain George V. While it is friendly in spirit, he speaks from the standpoint of a democrat.
