Father Curran and Colonel Roosevelt

The Wilkesbarre, Pennsylvania, "Record" of March 22, 1912, notes a special meeting between the Rev. J. J. Curran, pastor of the Holy Saviour Church (Roman Catholic), and Col. Theodore Roosevelt. It would not discuss the object of the meeting, but stated that they had been intimate friends for years, and that when Mr. Roosevelt occupied the chair of President, no visitor was more welcome at the White House than Father Curran; and the Wilkesbarre Record intimates that the priest has been summoned to New York for political purposes, especially regarding the field in which Father Curran lives.
