Frederic J. Paxon sends Theodore Roosevelt a letter regarding a sermon by Dr. John E. White that misrepresents Roosevelt’s stance on the Anglo-American Peace Treaty. Paxon expresses concern over the misunderstanding, affirms Roosevelt’s consistent support for “peace with honor,” and requests a clarifying letter to share with Dr. White and potentially publish.
