EDITORS COMMENTS
On this solemn day, February 26, 1908, Theodore Roosevelt, the 26th President of the United States, bids farewell to his officers in this poignant illustration from Puck magazine. Surrounded by a gathering of his esteemed colleagues, Roosevelt stands resolute at the center, clad in civilian attire, as the majority of his officers weep openly. Among them, former Secretary of War and future President William H. Taft is depicted in military uniform, while Charles J. Bonaparte, the former Attorney General, dons the garb of Napoleon Bonaparte, and naturalist John Burroughs is portrayed as a frontiersman. The emotional scene captures the profound sense of loss and transition as Roosevelt prepares to leave the White House and embark on a new chapter in his life. This powerful image, created by an unknown artist, serves as a poignant reminder of the human emotions that underlie the political landscape and the enduring bonds between a leader and those who have served under him.
