Telamon Cruger Smith Cuyler shares with President Roosevelt new information he has gathered about Roosevelt’s great grandfather, Brigadier General Daniel Stewart, and wants to give Roosevelt one of the Stewart autographs he has in his collection. He encloses his exact transcription of an authentic dinner invitation from George and Martha Washington, which he thinks would be a good model for the current administration’s dinner invitations.
