Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to S. D. Redmond
Theodore Roosevelt explains that P. W. Howard is “peculiarly fit” to fulfill for his wish for a “colored man” to second his presidential nomination. Roosevelt tells Sidney D. Redmond that he does not want to commit to Howard until he knows who else will attend the Republican National Convention, and he lets Redmond know that he has already communicated with Senator Dixon about the matter.
