Commissioner Roosevelt is unsure when he can leave due to work commitments and a scheduled meeting with President Harrison regarding the extension of the classified service. He cannot accept Rachel Sherman Thorndike’s invitation as he must have lunch with Representative Henry Cabot Lodge and dinner with Francis C. Lowell. However, he will make sure to see Thorndike. Roosevelt would love to see Ted Roosevelt and wishes that Archie were better.
