President Roosevelt thanks his brother-in-law Douglas Robinson for the will and asks a few questions about it, namely including Bob Ferguson and appointing Theodore Jr. a trustee already. He then speaks of the police affairs at the church and how a ‘nice old crank’ got in, which was a security failure on the part of the police. Roosevelt though it ridiculous for so many policemen to accompany him to church.
