Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to C. Hart Merriam
Theodore Roosevelt tells C. Hart Merriam to have Tarleton Hoffman Bean communicate with him. Roosevelt is also glad to help Charles W. Dabney, but is not sure if he knows a regent on the California coast. In a handwritten postscript, Roosevelt asks whether “roosevelti” is merely a synonym for “occidentalis,” meaning his namesake Roosevelt elk is the same as the Olympic Wapiti.
