Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Theodore Roosevelt
President Roosevelt tells his son Theodore Roosevelt that William Appleton’s letter was “bully,” and he was surprised that Appleton called the Porcellian Club “the best club in college.” The President repeatedly advises Ted not to “lose touch with the rest of your schoolmates” now that he is a member of the Porcellian Club. Roosevelt hopes he can attend one of “the Porc” dinners soon, and closes by noting that a certain poem by Rudyard Kipling “has always been one of my favorites.”
