President Roosevelt writes to his son Kermit about a day walking and swimming with the French ambassador, Assistant Secretary of State Robert Bacon, General Thomas Henry Barry, and Philip Battell Stewart. Roosevelt says Edith’s leg has improved and he likes his new horse Audrey. Roosevelt’s rate bill is nearly through and his next fight is the canal bill.
