Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Edmund Heller

President Roosevelt is pleased that Edmund Heller has agreed to join him and his son Kermit Roosevelt on the African safari. Heller will be joining J. Alden Loring and Edgar Alexander Mearns to work as a naturalist and collect zoological samples on the trip. Roosevelt clarifies that only he and Kermit will be shooting big game, as two rifles is the limit for a good hunt. Roosevelt also discusses the itinerary for the trip and the supplies that Heller, Loring, and Mearns will need to acquire for themselves.
