President Roosevelt reluctantly accepts Ambassador Choate’s resignation. He believes that no one since John Quincy Adams was Ambassador to England has been as dedicated as Choate. Roosevelt would like Choate to be able to stay in England until he is able to dedicate the memorial window to John Harvard in the St. Saviour’s Church personally, and will have Choate’s resignation take effect shortly after this occurs.
