Letter from Jacob A. Riis to Theodore Roosevelt
Jacob A. Riis tells President Roosevelt about a Y.M.C.A meeting he spoke at that was very enthusiastically pro-Roosevelt. Riis says that in three or four years there are many young men who will be rallying to Roosevelt’s banner of civic morality and decency. While he was in Groton, Massachusetts, Riis saw Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt and the Roosevelt children. He had not seen Archibald B. Roosevelt for a long time, and says that he is a cunning lad.
