ROOSEVELT, THEODORE. Typed Letter Signed, as President, to George F. Seward, declining an invitation to speak at a Chamber of Commerce of New York banquet, with a 9-word holograph addition. 1 page, folded small 4to sheet with integral blank, White House stationery; stain, inked received stamp. Washington, 10 November 1908
- Notes: "I wish I could accept but it is a simple impossibility. I should particularly like to come, but even tho I should only speak in brief I would not be willing to speak to you unless I should prepare something worthy of your body; and it is is [sic] a physical impossibility for me to do that with the amount of work I have on hand. Believe me it is with the utmost regret that I refuse."
