Harry N. Lembeck relates the story of Theodore Roosevelt’s wedding to Edith Kermit Carow in St. George’s Church in London, England. In addition to describing the Roosevelts’ ceremony, Lembeck highlights others married in the church, and he notes that the Theodore Roosevelt Association (TRA) has made a donation to help with the restoration and conservation of the nearly three-hundred-year-old church. An illustration and two photographs of the church accompany the article along with a text box citing the mission statement of the TRA.
