Letter from Michael McMahon to Theodore Roosevelt
Michael McMahon informs Theodore Roosevelt of the plight surrounding his “‘bill’ for labor” undertaken at The National Home for Disabled Volunteer Soldiers in Virginia. Investigation of the bill was undertaken by the Chief Clerk of the War Department and ultimately the Board of Managers of the National Home for Disabled Volunteer Soldiers. McMahon goes on to describe his recent illness, in which he nearly lost his life and leg to “vicious abscesses,” and laments his misfortune despite his years of abstaining from vices.
