President Roosevelt is happy to hear Kermit’s crew team won. Roosevelt says he cannot wait for Kermit to come home to divide all the treasures from his western trip between the children, but Kermit’s share will be set aside. Josiah the badger is “very good natured.” Roosevelt had a good trip but is tired and homesick.
