Corinne Roosevelt Robinson writes to William Loeb on behalf of her friend Samuel Beck Parkman Trowbridge, a prominent architect in New York, who wants to study the decorations in the Turkish palace. Because the palace is not always open to the public, Robinson wonders if William Loeb could ask President Roosevelt to write her friend a letter of introduction to Ambassador John George Alexander Leishman, who is stationed in Turkey.
