Letter from Quentin Roosevelt to Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt
Quentin Roosevelt writes to his mother to describe the journey to Gallup and his difficulties meeting up with his friend Ben who had gone on a trip to the Grand Canyon. Once Roosevelt meets up with Ben, they head to Kayenta, Arizona for the night. Roosevelt then discusses his whole plan for his time in the area and includes a hand drawn map of their travel route. Roosevelt is hoping for good bear hunting and fishing. He closes hoping his father is keeping quiet and that he wishes he knew Belle, Kermit Roosevelt’s fiance, better but hopes they like his choice of a gift.
