William L. Finley had previously promised to get Theodore Roosevelt an enlargement of some of the photographs of birds he showed to Roosevelt while Roosevelt was still president, but was unfortunately not able to do so before Roosevelt left. He offers to bring them to Portland, Oregon, so that Roosevelt can pick them up on his trip along the West Coast, but acknowledges that Roosevelt may have too many gifts already. Finley would like to speak with Roosevelt some day about the wild bird conservation efforts he is involved in on the Pacific coast.
