Theodore Roosevelt writes to his son Kermit and daughter-in-law Belle regarding the death of “Eldridge” and speaks of the plans Eldridge and Kermit had made to do business abroad. Roosevelt says he is in the middle of proof sheets for Booklover’s Holidays in the Open and his collected writings on public affairs will be published as Fear God and Take your own Part. He tells Belle he is sorry to hear about her eyes and wishes he could be there with them.
