Letter from Corinne Roosevelt Robinson to Theodore Roosevelt

Subject(s): Gracie, James King, 1840-1903, New York (State), New York Orthopaedic Dispensary and Hospital, Presidents--Brothers and sisters

Corinne Roosevelt Robinson writes about funding for a memorial for their uncle James King Gracie, who died in 1903. She suggests that a memorial at the Church of the Holy Communion or the Orthopedic Hospital would be fitting since Gracie was buried from that church and the hospital received money from Gracie’s will.
