Letter from Whitelaw Reid to Theodore Roosevelt

Whitelaw Reid writes to President Roosevelt to discuss the British and Foreign Bible Society’s Centenary Thanksgiving meeting and requests Roosevelt send him a brief message to be read at the meeting. The society is also seeking a letter from Kaiser Wilhelm II. They believe that if Roosevelt sends a statement and they read the two together, it will reveal the unifying nature of the Bible for “Teutonic peoples.”
