Letter from Abram Woodruff Halsey to Theodore Roosevelt

Abram Woodruff Halsey forwards an invitation to President Roosevelt to visit the Presbyterian West Africa Mission when he is in Africa, and attests to the character and experience of the people there. The area the mission is in has many elephants, and Halsey is confident that Roosevelt will also be able to shoot leopard if he visits the Congo. Halsey also gives his personal advice on how to remain healthy while in Africa.
