Gustavus M. Middleton reminds Theodore Roosevelt he sent Roosevelt a pamphlet titled Sketches of South Carolina. Middleton also recently published an article on the Civil War in the Charleston News and Courier, and received a letter from Roosevelt. The letter and pamphlet were both sent to John Douglas Sutherland Campbell, Duke of Argyll and Middleton would now like to send the Duke a good description of the White House, if Roosevelt can point him in the right direction.
