Letter from William H. H. Llewellyn to Theodore Roosevelt

William H. H. Llewellyn just missed Theodore Roosevelt’s train after his speech but is glad Roosevelt got to meet his son, Theodore R. Llewellyn. He wants to talk about the situation in New Mexico regarding the Department of Justice, which only has one representative. With the troubles in Mexico and the violation of neutrality and customs laws, there should be more representatives. Llewellyn discusses situations where “there has been some very high handed doings in connection with the enforcement of the law.” He also wanted to talk to Roosevelt about being appointed to the International Boundary Commission, especially after Anson Mills’ “scurrilous” attack on Roosevelt in the newspapers.
