David M. Goodrich appreciates Theodore Roosevelt’s invitation to visit his home at Sagamore Hill, and will look forward to being able to do so. He reports that his health is much better, and that while he was shocked at Alexander Lambert’s prognosis, the Swiss air helped a great deal. Goodrich hopes to return to the United States soon, even if he must stay away from New York for a time in order to not endanger his health. In a postscript, Goodrich mentions the result of a recent murder case that saw the accused being acquitted because of insanity.
