President Roosevelt says he will not make a speech at this time, but he assures the crowd that he will be coming back to Ohio in a few weeks. He says he is on his way to a convention of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen in Chattanooga, Tennessee, adding that he has always had a special fondness for railroad workers. He thanks the crowd for coming, especially the parents carrying small children—reminding him of his own—and men who wear a button showing they are Union veterans of the American Civil War.
