John Campbell Greenway is disappointed Theodore Roosevelt cannot visit him in Bisbee, Arizona. He will try to join Roosevelt in El Paso, Texas. Bisbee’s City Council and Mayor Charles L. Edmundson sent Roosevelt an invitation on a copper plate but have not received a reply. Greenway suggests Roosevelt respond as they are “feeling slightly hurt.” He enjoys living in Arizona and updates Roosevelt on fellow Rough Riders Robert Harry Munro Ferguson and David M. Goodrich.
