Letter from Kermit Roosevelt to Theodore Roosevelt
Kermit Roosevelt tells President Roosevelt he is meeting “lots of fellows” by trying out for the football team at Harvard. Kermit explains the trouble he had scheduling his courses, thanks his father for the allowance he sent, and asks for a pair of rubber soled shoes and another with hobnails on them. He asks what happened to the cotton-soled shoes and if the “modified duffel bags” have arrived for their upcoming trip to Africa.
