Letter from George H. Moses to Jacob H. Gallinger

George H. Moses writes to Senator Gallinger that he does not know if the New Hampshire Delegation has made a decision in confirming their endorsement of pension officer at their conference. He hopes that they will confirm Captain Richard Watson Musgrove and knows that most newspapermen favor his confirmation. Moses hopes the similarities of the Musgrove family to the Roosevelts will earn President Roosevelt’s favor. If a decision has not been reached by the time of the Gridiron Club Dinner, Moses will attend and try to speak to the President at the event.

Letter from Winston Churchill to Theodore Roosevelt

Winston Churchill is again writing William Loeb about the matter concerning selecting a new Pension Administrator for New Hampshire. Churchill believes that President Roosevelt’s “enemy” Senator Jacob H. Gallinger has intentionally nominated Richard W. Musgrove as a way to alienate his son Frank Abbott Musgrove, a staunch supporter of Roosevelt. Because of this conflict, Churchill suggests Charles Fairbanks as the ideal Pension Administrator and attaches a letter from Fairbanks for Loeb to forward to Roosevelt.
