Commissioner Roosevelt will do everything he can for Arthur Kinnaird if he shows up. He hopes Robert Harry Munro Ferguson has received the Boone and Crockett Club book. Roosevelt still does not have Ferguson’s address and fears his letter will be returned. (A note on the last page confirms that the letter was returned.) Roosevelt closes with some thoughts on yacht racing.
