Frances M. Wolcott informs President Roosevelt that she has given a woman a letter of introduction, which may be presented to Roosevelt. The woman is the daughter of an American mother and an Italian father. She is married to an Italian naval officer, and has never been to the United States, but has lived in Turkey and Asia. Wolcott thinks she wishes to write about her impressions of America, and thinks Roosevelt will find her intelligent and interested in understanding the real conditions of the country.
