Henry E. Huck sends Theodore Roosevelt a statement from a witness of the American Flag affair to accompany the flag he sent to President William H. Taft. Huck mentions he is currently being held at the Rosehurst sanitarium, but is at risk of being sent to an insane asylum due to his knowledge of the affair. Huck is scared that his doctors and the other people around him are not taking him seriously about this matter, but trusts Roosevelt to help him prove the truth.
