Letter from William Sturgis Bigelow to Theodore Roosevelt
William Sturgis Bigelow discusses the accommodations, schedule, and company at his home for President Roosevelt’s upcoming visit. He thinks Justice Holmes would be more comfortable elsewhere, since they would have to share a bathroom, but he has no problem hosting Senator Lodge. Bigelow points out that it is lucky that no one seems to have discovered yet that Roosevelt will be staying with him otherwise Governor Guild would “have the Ancient + Honorable camped on the [Boston] Common in front of the house to fire twenty one guns whenever you put on a clean shirt.”
