Letter from Victor Geza Fischer to Theodore Roosevelt

The books on Africa that Victor Geza Fischer had hoped to give to President Roosevelt have been delayed, but he promises to send them once they have arrived. In the meantime, Fischer sends Roosevelt a Japanese sword as a Christmas present, and thanks Roosevelt for the gift he sent to him, as well as for the sentiment with which it was sent.
