President Roosevelt is seen holding a gun and ready for a hunting trip as bears flee in the background. Caption reads, “Associated Press Dispatch – Most of the men sat on cotton bales. They showed their white teeth in hard grins, but made no other demonstration as the president stepped from the train. He was clad in a hunting costume – khaki riding trousers, heavy leather leggings, blue flannel shirt, corduroy coat and wore on his head a brown slouch hat. Around his waist was buckled a cartridge belt and at his side hung his ivory handled hunting knife.”
