Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Gardner E. Dickinson
Assistant Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt informs Gardner E. Dickinson that he is concerned about the naval militia in Georgia, particularly in Brunswick. Roosevelt states the Savannah militia received the latest report well, but if the militia in Brunswick refuses to accept criticisms or advice, he will have no choice but to take the monitor away from them. Roosevelt wishes to fix the issues at hand with the Georgia militia, particularly because Georgia is where his mother is from.
