Letter from William H. Moody to Theodore Roosevelt

Attorney General Moody comments to President Roosevelt about a letter between two of Roosevelt’s former Rough Rider comrades, Morgan Llewellyn and Sherman M. Bell, about the “somewhat inconsistent loyalty” of a third, James D. Ritchie. Moody tells Roosevelt about a letter he received from William H. Moody, of Memphis, Tennessee, asking for a job because of the similarity of his name to Moody’s and that “blood is thicker than water. No doubt we are from the same stock.”
