Senator Lodge thanks President Roosevelt for the letter and updates him on his health. Although he is recovering from his illness now, he had to cancel several speaking engagements. The Boston Herald has been publishing false articles about Lodge and Roosevelt, one of which resulted in Lodge receiving an interesting letter from Robert C. Winthrop, which he encloses. Lodge was also glad to hear about the suspension of a ruling regarding pickled sheep skins, which would have impacted the industry in Massachusetts.
