Theodore Roosevelt found Charles C. Bull’s letter interesting in every respect. He does not want to be nominated. Bull’s talk with John Avery McIlhenny amused Roosevelt. He comments on his average drinking habits and responds to Andrew B. Hammond’s charges that he was not at the Battle of San Juan Hill and drinks heavily.
