Secretary to the President Loeb informs Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt that President Roosevelt will speak to her about Secretary of War William H. Taft taking the Mayflower for his trip to Panama. Roosevelt thought that the First Lady would want to use the Mayflower, and if so, Taft could use the Columbia. Edith Roosevelt responds in a handwritten note, “Let Sec Taft take the Mayflower by all means.”
