Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Cameron McRae Winslow

Theodore Roosevelt replies to Captain Winslow about his suspension by Rear Admiral Conway H. Arnold in 1906 and a quote in a letter from the Secretary of the Navy in 1909 which stated, “the propriety of his action in this case has been determined by a former administration.” Roosevelt denies that he determined the propriety of the action. He suspected that Winslow may have been mistreated and intended to make an investigation. However, he was not given the paperwork in the case until March 3, the day before leaving the White House, when it was impossible to go into the matter.
