Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to John Hay

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to John Hay

President Roosevelt suggests that the visiting princes from China, Siam, and Russia each have their own visit to Sagamore Hill. Each will be picked up by the presidential yacht, dropped off for lunch, and return in the same manner. Roosevelt also believes that Governor Bragg, Consul at Havana, must be removed because his wife allowed an inflammatory letter to be published. It would be preferable to have Bragg transferred to a new consulship rather then dismissed.
