Thomas Barbour says he and John C. Phillips are upset by something written by Abbott Handerson Thayer in the October Issue of “The Auk” periodical, although it is amusing since it directly follows Francis H. Allen’s positive review of Roosevelt’s work. He encourages Theodore Roosevelt to read the passage as well. Barbour says he and Thayer may have to respond.
