...Manhattan. He lived for a time in Oyster Bay, where he got to know the late Theodore Roosevelt. His first recording was of Theodore Roosevelt's voice, greeting Vincent's Boy Progressives League on March 4, 1913, while Woodrow Wilson was being inaugurated President after outrunning Bull Mooser Roosevelt and Republican William Howard Taft. Said Teddy to the young Bull Moosers with unsquelched heartiness and bite: "Don't flinch, don't foul, and hit the line hard...

As cholera subsided, typhus rose, wrung from League Sanitarian Herman H. Mooser a warning: "The danger is imminent. Refugees throughout Central China are simply filthy with typhus-carrying lice. All the Chinese soldiers in the Lung-hai area (see p. 17) are lousy. There are no Chinese delousing stations, and we are half crazy trying to get co-operation from Chinese military...
