Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to William Loeb

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to William Loeb

Theodore Roosevelt wishes William Loeb a merry Christmas and will have much to tell him on his return to the United States. Roosevelt has killed around two hundred animals on safari, from an elephant to a dik-dik. Kermit Roosevelt has grown to become a better hunter than his father. Roosevelt refused Herbert Parsons’s request to publicly support Otto T. Bannard. He supports Bannard, but is not fully informed of the issues and thinks it would look foolish to try and advise voters from Africa. In the Peary-Cook controversy, Roosevelt believes that Frederick Albert Cook “has all the earmarks of a fake” and that Robert E. Peary reached the North Pole.
