Anna Roosevelt Cowles wishes she could visit with everyone at Sagamore Hill. She comments on the newspapers’ blaming Theodore Roosevelt for the various Democratic majorities. Her family is settling for the winter. William Sheffield Cowles enjoys public school and spending time with his friend Cameron McRae Winslow. Anna is trying to start a Boy Scout group. She reports that politically, Connecticut is “chastened and entangled” with Simeon E. Baldwin for Governor, and the Senatorial fight still rages.
