Bernard E. Sunny, a member of the Union League Club of Chicago, conveys a request from Lewis K. Torbet asking whether it would be possible for Theodore Roosevelt to deliver an address to the Daughters of the American Revolution when he is in Chicago. Sunny provides an overview of the full day of events the Union League Club already has scheduled, but acknowledges Roosevelt’s “facility for crowding a good deal into a little space,” and says the club will do its best to accommodate any outside requests Roosevelt decides to accept.
