William Hooper has remembered the name of the individual they spoke of at dinner, Mr. Redfern. Hooper notes that Senator William B. Allison and Hooper’s father-in-law, C. E. Perkins, are good friends. If Roosevelt needs to understand the sentiment south of the Platte River, Perkins could be of help. Hooper apologizes for any mistakes in etiquette when he called on Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt.
