Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to George Haven Putnam

President Roosevelt has heard that the heirs of John Hay and John G. Nicolay are contesting Putnam’s Sons’s right to publish an edition of Abraham Lincoln’s writings. Roosevelt hopes that George Haven Putnam will do what is right in the situation, but states that in light of his relation to John Hay, he cannot author the prologue in question without the heirs’ consent.
