Theodore Roosevelt declines the request of Elizabeth Waters Quay’s friend to write a poem. He expresses concern for Quay’s husband, Richard, who is not well, but is glad to hear about Quay’s children. Roosevelt invites the family to his home if they are ever in New York. Roosevelt also tells Quay that he would be glad to autograph a photograph if she sends one.
