Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Helen M. Sanderson
Theodore Roosevelt enjoyed Helen M. Sanderson’s letter and is glad that she gets to stay near her sons while her husband, Edward L. Sanderson, takes over as headmaster of the school he attended. Although, they will still think of “strange Africa” and wish to return. Roosevelt feels too old to go back to Africa and would hate to leave Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt and his home, unless there was a real need such as a war. However, Kermit Roosevelt longs to return. Roosevelt sends the kids his love and hopes Sanderson will continue her writing.
