George G. Hill heard from Maurice Francis Egan about a letter Theodore Roosevelt wrote to Charles Dwight Willard on the referendum. He would like to read a copy if possible. He read Roosevelt’s interview with Henry Beech Needham and reprinted extracts of it in the New York Tribune, and asks whether he saw the testimonial to William Loeb in yesterday’s issue of the New York Evening Post. He wishes Taft had more “Roosevelt men” in his administration. In a handwritten postscript, Hill expresses disappointment at not being able to visit with Roosevelt when he passed through in March.
