President Roosevelt was delighted to receive the letter from his daughter, Ethel Roosevelt, and understands her joy in exploring the attic. He is glad that she has made a new friend, and was interested in hearing about her experiences horseback riding. Roosevelt has not been able to be very active for several weeks, and does not think his ankle will be healed enough to play tennis for another couple weeks. He hopes, though, to be able to go riding soon. Roosevelt is pleased that Ethel is going to teach Sunday school, and comments on a charitable cause he was able to contribute to recently. He has not heard from Ethel’s sister Alice Roosevelt Longworth on her honeymoon, but says that she seems to be enjoying herself, and hopes that the attentions of royalty do not hurt the political career of her new husband, Nicholas Longworth.
