Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Boies Penrose

President Roosevelt informs Senator Penrose that he is unable to excuse Jacob G. Bunn, a financial clerk in the Philadelphia post office who made illegal political assessments. Roosevelt rejects the argument of ignorance of the law put forth by Bunn and the post office on multiple occasions. He has no alternative but to remove Bunn from office.
