Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Frank Ross McCoy

President Roosevelt is glad to hear from Captain McCoy and learn about the camp at Fort Riley. He is uncertain if he can obtain the copy of Major George M. Barber’s journal notes McCoy requests. Instead, he sends an edition of Rough Riders for reference. As a member of the campaign in question, Roosevelt wants to know who takes exception to Captain Herbert H. Sargent’s account and why.

Letter from Frank Ross McCoy to Theodore Roosevelt

Frank Ross McCoy relates to President Roosevelt that Captain Herbert H. Sargent read him a letter “from an officer of standing who was…on Kettle Hill, and who takes exception” to the statement that Roosevelt and General Samuel S. Sumner led the charge. McCoy requests Roosevelt send Sargent a copy of George M. Barber’s journal account of the event as supporting evidence. Wishing Roosevelt could experience it, McCoy describes military camp life at Fort Riley. He attests that Edgar Alexander Mearns is a valuable asset for the Africa trip.
