Anna Roosevelt Cowles conveys information about Cabinet appointments given to her by Mr. Reid who believes that President Roosevelt should minimize his intimacy with Leonard Wood. Reid also thinks Roosevelt’s letter on lynching was a “masterpiece.” The Mintos also send messages to Roosevelt. Cowles enjoyed reading The Call of the Wild and asks Roosevelt if he has read it.
