Letter from William H. H. Llewellyn to Theodore Roosevelt

Subject(s): Morrison, Alexander L., 1831-1917, Morrison, Robert E. (Robert Emmett), 1856-1927, Periodicals

William H. H. Llewellyn, United States Attorney for the Territory of New Mexico, asks President Roosevelt to review a marked copy of the “Western Catholic Review.” Alexander L. Morrison–editor of the magazine–and his son Robert E. Morrison, used to be government employees, and Llewellyn asks if Roosevelt knows of someone “who would have some influence with the publication.” Llewellyn does not wish to comment on the article, but is of the opinion that it was “calculated to do some harm.”
