President Roosevelt says how much he enjoys Ethel’s letters and is glad he enjoys her new room at Sagamore Hill. He cannot wait to get home and see the improvements that were made. Roosevelt is interested in what Ethel had to say about the family’s horses and complains about his ankle preventing him from exercising. He closes by saying Anna Lodge came to visit with her children who clamored to see Ethel.
