Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to George G. Cotton
President Roosevelt tells George G. Cotton that he believes that, as a descendant of John Cotton and William Bradford, Cotton “typifies the old Puritan spirit infinitely more than the professional anti-imperialists of Boston to-day.” Roosevelt appreciated Cotton’s kind words, and sympathizes with him about missing a moose hunt.
