Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Frances Folsom Cleveland
President Roosevelt tells Francis Folsom Cleveland, President Grover Cleveland’s widow, that he has recently had the honor of signing a proclamation changing the name of the San Jacinto National Forest to the Cleveland National Forest. Roosevelt reviews how that forest first came to be reserved for conservation purposes by President Cleveland and praises his foresight in recognizing the importance of conservation.
