President Roosevelt seeks confirmation from Commissioner of Pensions Warner that Ethel Chase Sprague Donaldson’s pension is processed with haste, as he has high regard for her and her late husband, Rough Rider and army surgeon, Frank Donaldson. Although Roosevelt respects the Donaldson’s service to their country during the war, he particularly notes that Mrs. Donaldson’s grandfather is Chief Justice Salmon P. Chase, Secretary of the Treasury to President Abraham Lincoln.

John M. Neal tells Theodore Roosevelt that he is a former Rough Rider who was injured during the division’s stay at Montauk Point following their deployment to Cuba. He was struck in the legs and injured. He was briefly treated at a volunteer hospital before returning to camp. He did not seek further care because he did not think the injury was serious. The injury turned out to be severe, and he now cannot get a pension without a hospital record. He asks Roosevelt if he has any information about the volunteer hospital at Montauk Point.
