Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Kermit Roosevelt
Theodore Roosevelt noticed Kermit Roosevelt’s “delicate hint” in his question about Theodore “Ted” Roosevelt and the Pudding and, therefore, sends a check for sixty dollars. He agrees with Kermit about the foolishness of the Camp Fire Club’s hunting honor list. Roosevelt tries to avoid joining clubs but still pays membership fees for many without returns in pleasure or profit. Unfortunately, Roosevelt’s library is too full of books like A. D. Melvin’s. While he is pleased Kermit ran the races, Roosevelt is glad he is finished with training. Quentin Roosevelt enjoyed Kermit’s visit to Groton School. Roosevelt dreads being overworked on his trips and wants to enjoy time with family and visit the Grand Canyon.
