Letter from Edward William Nelson to Theodore Roosevelt
Edward William Nelson was pleased by the note Theodore Roosevelt sent accompanying the copy of the letter that Roosevelt wrote to Charles A. Kofoid regarding coloration of antelope. Nelson agrees with Roosevelt regarding the case, and believes that Abbott Handerson Thayer’s theory is “absurdly overworked” and in error. He regrets that he was unable to be present at the recent dinner of the Boone and Crockett club where he heard the matter was discussed.
