Theodore Roosevelt has received his books and packages. He is not pleased with the food and intends to join a “table with some of the Boston men.” Roosevelt has also paid the next half year’s rent. He provides a sketch of his room and outlines his schedule. He recently purchased his winter clothing, except for an afternoon coat, and has been wearing his mother’s slippers.
