Gilbert S. Cryne writes to Theodore Roosevelt to introduce himself as an old admirer of his policies and work. Cryne has lived in Gladstone, North Dakota since 1882, and he remembers when Roosevelt identified with “cattle interests.” He is close acquaintances with many of Roosevelts former acquaintances and friends, and he has just completed reading Roosevelt’s African Game Trails and Jacob A. Riis’ biography of Roosevelt. He begs Roosevelt’s pardon for addressing him so personally and wishes Roosevelt a long life.
