Another remembering of you is your bravery when you sleped down from a tall chair. The two rememberings can't leave from my head. ANOTHER REMEMBERING OF YOU IS YOUR BRAVERY WHEN YOU SLIP DOWN FROM A TALL CHAIR THE TWO REMEMBERINGS CAN'T LEAVE FROM MY HEAD
 (To Dr. William Sturgis Bigelow) White House, Jan. 14, 1905. DEAR STURGIS: Last year, when I had Professor Yamashita teach me the "Jiudo"--as they seem now to call Jiu Jitsu--the naval attache here, Commander Takashita, used to come around here and bring a young lad, Kitgaki, who is now entering Annapolis. I used to wrestle with them both. They were very fond of Archie and were very good to him. This Christmas Kitgaki sent from Annapolis a little present to Archie, who wrote to thank him, and Kitgaki sent him a letter back that we like so much that I thought you might enjoy it, as it shows so nice a trait in the Japanese character. It runs as follows: "My dearest boy: "I received your nice letter. I thank you ever so much. I am very very glad that you have receive my small present. "I like you very very much. When I have been in Jiudo room with your father and you, your father was talking to us about the picture of the cavalry officer. In that time, I saw some expression on your face.
