| Biography/History | "My dear Mr. Lynch: I thank you for your gift, and appreciate it. And yet I am really sorry that you had to kill that buffalo bull. I am surprised that there should have been no market for him in the different parks and museums of this country, for I would have thought there would be plenty of people who would like to have him. With regard and thanks, I am, Sincerely yours, Theodore Roosevelt" - Text of letter written by President Theodore Roosevelt from the White House, January 28, 1907. |
