Representative Longworth acknowledges the importance of the appointment of the collector at Toledo by President Roosevelt, not in itself but as an indication of who will be consulted on such appointments in future. Longworth will wait to update Roosevelt on political conditions in Ohio until they meet in Washington, D.C. He details Alice Roosevelt Longworth’s travel plans and relays that she was disappointed that Roosevelt did not receive her letter. He jokes about Aunt Ia’s (i.e. Maria Longworth Storer) new edition of Roosevelt’s letters.
