President Roosevelt became the first American President to visit a foreign country while in office on an inspection tour of the Panama Canal. On November 15, 1906, Roosevelt, Panamanian President Guerrero, and two unidentified men arrive and stand on a platform on the steps of the Metropolitan Cathedral of St. Mary in Panama City. Two women arrive at the ceremony; the woman on the right may be Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt. Guerrero delivers a welcoming address as dignitaries look on, and then Roosevelt speaks.
