Letter from James Alfred Roosevelt to Theodore Roosevelt

James Alfred Roosevelt recommends Edward R. Gunby of Tampa, Florida, for appointment to the federal judgeship there. Roosevelt describes Gunby’s qualifications and characteristics to his cousin, President Roosevelt. Roosevelt is taking an interest in local Tampa politics as “an outsider.” Roosevelt tells people who ask about a third term for President Roosevelt that he thinks the president will not run again.
