Excerpt: ...and the six children, that this particular service would probably not be dangerous. Come, sure! Sincerely yours, THEODORE ROOSEVELT. MR. JOSEPH P. TUMULTY, Secretary to the President, Washington, D.C. After the Colonel departed, the President in a boyish way said: "Well, and how did the Colonel impress you?" I told the President of the very favourable impression the Colonel had made upon me by his buoyancy, charm of manner, and his great good nature.

It appears that Mr. Leary accompanied the Colonel to the White House and immediately upon the conclusion of the conference was the recipient of a confidential statement of the Colonel's impression of the President. The account in Mr. Leary's book is as follows: I found that, though I had written plainly enough, there was confusion in his Wilson's mind as to what I wanted to do. I explained everything to him. He seemed to take it well, but-remember I was talking to Mr. Wilson. Tumulty, by way of a half joke, said he might go to France with me. I said: 'By Jove, you come right along! I'll have a place for you.' I would, too, but it wouldn't be the place he thinks. It is possible he might be sent along as sort of a watchdog to keep Mr. Wilson...
