Bức thư thứ ba được giới thiệu cho các bạn là bức thư 
Lawrence Abbott đã viết cho Theodore Roosevelt khi ông 
bị ốm phải nằm ở trong bệnh viện. 
Các bạn hãy quan sát ở dưới đây: 
 Please accept this word of sympathy and 
best wishes. Some years ago I had a severe 
attack of sciatica which kept me in bed a 
good many days: in fact, it kept me in an 
armchair night and day some of the time 
because I could not lie down, so I know 
what the discomfort and pain are. 
 I want to take this opportunity also of 
sending you my congratulations. For I think 
your leadership has had very much to do 
with the unconditional surrender of 
Germany. Last Friday night I was asked to 
speak at the Men's Club of the Church of the 
Messiah in this city and they requested me 
to make you the subject of my talk. I told 
them something about your experience in 
Egypt and Europe in 1910 and said what I 
most strongly believe, that your address at 
the Sorbonne--in strengthening the 
supporters of law and order against red 
Bolshevism--and your address in Guildhall--
urging the British to govern or go--
contributed directly to the success of those 
two governments in this war. If Great Britain 
had allowed Egypt to get out of hand instead 
of, as an actual result of your Guildhall 
speech, sending Kitchener to strengthen the 
feebleness of Sir Eldon Gorst, the Turks and 
Germans might have succeeded in their 
invasion and have cut off the Suez Canal. 
So you laid the ground for preparedness not 
only in this country but in France and 
England. 
 I know it was a disappointment to you not to 
have an actual share in the fighting but I 
think you did a greater piece of work in 
preparing the battleground and the battle 
spirit.
