Theodore Roosevelt writes his sister-in-law Emily Tyler Carow. He is pleased the Fergusons have been so kind. Edith is very happy and they have been going out a lot and he lists couples they enjoy being with. Roosevelt romps with the children in the afternoon when he goes home for tea and updates her on each, especially eldest son Ted’s antics.
