Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to F. Norton Goddard
President Roosevelt informs F. Norton Goddard that he should never have approached a potential district attorney with a request to give his friend a job. Roosevelt does not believe that James R. Sheffield meant to imply he would give the friend a job, and is not even sure that he will appoint Sheffield. He is astonished that Goddard would make such a request.
