Theodore Roosevelt enjoyed hosting Grace Stackpole Roosevelt and Archibald Roosevelt at Sagamore Hill. Roosevelt is pleased that Archibald Roosevelt’s company received the boots and offers to send anything else that Archie or his men require. Archie continues to object to coming home to recuperate. Roosevelt encloses a complimentary letter from General Pershing that made him proud of Archie. Quentin Roosevelt has been sent to the front, Kermit Roosevelt is traveling to Madrid, and Ted Roosevelt is at the front but was able to see Eleanor Butler Roosevelt for one day.
