Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to James Gibbons

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to James Gibbons

President Roosevelt tells Cardinal Gibbons that he mistakenly told Gibbons no vacancy existed on a commission in a previous letter. Roosevelt compares two men for the position, Major Thomas L. Hartigan and Treasurer of the Philippines Frank A. Branagan. He strongly prefers the latter and shares that they are both Catholic. Roosevelt is unsure whether he means to fill the vacancy or leave it to president-elect William H. Taft.
