Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Vespasian Warner

President Roosevelt seeks confirmation from Commissioner of Pensions Warner that Ethel Chase Sprague Donaldson’s pension is processed with haste, as he has high regard for her and her late husband, Rough Rider and army surgeon, Frank Donaldson. Although Roosevelt respects the Donaldson’s service to their country during the war, he particularly notes that Mrs. Donaldson’s grandfather is Chief Justice Salmon P. Chase, Secretary of the Treasury to President Abraham Lincoln.
