Thomas J. Dolan thanks Theodore Roosevelt for his offer to write to Illinois Governor Charles Samuel Deneen about Edward McCann. He forwards letters from several men involved in labor movements which he says will convey the general feeling of the movement towards “this atrocious proceeding against McCann.” Roosevelt can either write directly to Deneen about the matter, or send Dolan the letter to pass along to the correct people.
