Letter from Whitelaw Reid to Theodore Roosevelt

Ambassador Reid updates President Roosevelt on his plan to speak to Lord Crewe soon about the white rhinoceros. He shares the details of his recent shooting excursions at Wrest Park. Reid applauds Roosevelt’s political triumphs in the “late shindies.” He apologizes if his previous letter put Roosevelt in a difficult position. It would please Reid to stay in Great Britain at least until Roosevelt’s visit, but he does not want to cause his friends trouble.
