Letter from Edward North Buxton to Theodore Roosevelt

Edward North Buxton writes to accept Theodore Roosevelt’s invitation to join a camping outfit in the national parks. Buxton will be visiting Washington, D.C., in March 1905, for the presidential inauguration, then traveling west, and stopping again in D.C. on the return trip. He hopes to have more time with the President on the return visit than will be possible during the inaugural festivities.
