Assemblyman Roosevelt misses Alice Lee Roosevelt and is looking forward to seeing her on Friday. He had a successful sparring session and bloodied his teacher’s nose. After an exciting debate, Roosevelt’s Reform Charter bill has been ordered for a third reading. Date on the letter reads “Feb. 6th,” but the original cataloger suggests that it was actually written on the 5th.
