Letter from Alexander Lambert to Theodore Roosevelt

Alexander Lambert informs President Roosevelt that he has accepted an invitation from Surgeon General Robert M. O’Reilly to serve on a board to evaluate whether inoculations against typhoid should be given to soldiers in the army. Lambert asks if he might be able to stay with Roosevelt while he is in town. He additionally congratulates Roosevelt on the recent victory of Harvard’s football team over Yale, and mentions a pair of books that he thinks that Roosevelt may be interested in reading. Lambert recently saw Robert Harry Munroe Ferguson, and comments on his health.
