Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to W. S. Rainsford

President Roosevelt explains that United States Marshal William Henkel has had a great deal of support from both Republican and Democratic judges, so he feels inclined to reappoint him. Roosevelt understands that Reverend Rainsford and others do not see Henkel as a good political leader, but that is not sufficient reason to prevent Henkel’s reappointment. Roosevelt asks if it would do any good to have Henkel speak personally with Rainsford and Herbert Parsons.
