T.R. Kelly writes to Theodore Roosevelt about his concerns that the history of the pioneers in the Western United States is being forgotten. Kelly wishes to form a society with the purpose of perpetuating the history of frontier life. This fraternal order will not have a political affiliation, and it will be primarily concerned with the preservation of pioneer history. Because of Roosevelt’s interest in the West, Kelly hopes he can share his opinion on this fraternal order.
