Theodore Roosevelt asks for his sister’s advice on an enclosed letter. He wishes he knew a wealthy man who could help support the family of the deceased poet, Madison Julius Cawein, but refuses to ask Andrew Carnegie. Roosevelt inquires about a photograph he sent to Corinne Roosevelt Robinson and sends his love to her family.
