Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Ethel Roosevelt Derby

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Ethel Roosevelt Derby

President Roosevelt updates Ethel Roosevelt on recent family news, particularly the activities of her brothers. He went on a “scramble” with the officers of the General Staff and War College. They did not travel fast but everyone made a gallant effort. Roosevelt understands Ethel’s annoyance at the “old bores” always talking to her about her father’s career. He compares her complaint to General Sherman loathing the song “Marching Through Georgia.”
