TLS to his friend Jim Connolly, signed “Theodore Roosevelt,TLS, one page, 7 x 7.5, The Outlook letterhead, September 15, 1913. In part: “Of course my sympathies go out to Miss Brenda, but if Mrs. Connolly can leave her let her come, and you come anyhow if the chance occurs. Remember, however, that if you fail to be able to come this Fall, the invitation holds good for next Spring on my return from South America. I saw that article of yours, and was particularly pleased with it.” In very good condition, with trimmed edges clipping the very end of the signature, scattered toning, a paper clip impression to the upper left. Roosevelt has been quoted as saying “If I were to pick one man for my sons to pattern their lives after, I would choose Jim Connolly." COA John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
