Mrs. Archibald Dixon is a supporter of President Roosevelt, but is of a different opinion on a few issues. She sent Roosevelt a magazine by George B. Cortelyou that included an article on Patrick Henry. She disagrees with Roosevelt’s assessment that Henry made “a slip” in opposing the Constitution without amendments. She also encourages him to leave the North-South issue in the hands of God.
