Kermit Roosevelt has a year of hard work ahead of him with his Harvard examinations. He is also trying out for the rowing crew in spite of the bad weather and had a good holiday riding and jumping horses every day. Roosevelt visited Robert Harry Munro and Isabella Ferguson in New York twice. The Roosevelts had plans to take the Mayflower down the Mississippi River, but Archibald B. Roosevelt is developing diphtheria, so it is out of the question.
