Herbert Evison, Chief of Information for the National Park Service, informs John Bennett Silas that a copy of the letter Silas sent to NPS Headquarters in Washington, D.C., is being forwarded to the Superintendent of Theodore Roosevelt National Memorial Park. Silas’s letter informed the NPS of his mother’s family’s association with Theodore Roosevelt and the Marquis de Mores when all were living in the North Dakota Badlands. Evison notes that TRNMP will be interested in this information given the upcoming dedication ceremony for the park.
