Alice Wright Gwin sends Theodore Roosevelt something she wrote that was published in the Chicago Record Herald when he was in Chicago in 1910, although she doubts he read it. Gwin hopes to see him and perhaps shake his hand when he is in town again next week. She is a teacher at a public school and would like an autographed photograph for her classroom.
