Ripley Hitchcock, editor at Harper & Brothers, notifies President Roosevelt that his articles on hunting that had been published in Harper’s Round Table magazine have been combined into a book called Good Hunting. Hitchcock says the publishers have followed all of Roosevelt’s requests, and expresses his hope that Roosevelt will be pleased. Hitchcock also notes that they are publishing Sampson Rock of Wall Street by Edwin Lefevre, which he believes Roosevelt will be interested to hear. Hitchcock says he will be in Washington, D.C., in upcoming weeks and hopes they can meet then and discuss more literary matters.
