Edward North Buxton informs President Roosevelt that he is giving some of his best hunting trophies to the Norwich Museum where he feels they will be “finely housed.” One of the items to be donated is a white goat’s head that Roosevelt shot, so Buxton wanted Roosevelt to know of the donation. Buxton wishes the Roosevelts a very happy Christmas and a New Year filled with success in accomplishing the President’s “high ideals.”
