Letter from James W. Fowler to Theodore Roosevelt

Subject(s): Dwyer, T. Augustine (Thomas Augustine), -1924, Gifts, Letters, Travel--Economic aspects

James W. Fowler asks Theodore Roosevelt if the assertions made by T. Augustine Dwyer that Roosevelt gave him a sum of money to travel in Europe during Roosevelt’s presidency are accurate. Dwyer holds several authentic letters from Roosevelt, and while Fowler assures Roosevelt that neither he nor other friends of Dwyer want to bring publicity to a personal matter, they would like to know “for their own satisfaction.”
