MOODY In 1904, Roosevelt signed this appointment along with William H Moody, making Henry K. Simkson a Notary Public for the District of Columbia for five years. Civil appointment signed: "Theodore Roosevelt", as president in brown ink. 1 page, 18¼x14¾, with red 2½x2½-inch United States Department of Justice seal affixed. July 23, 1904. Appointment of Henry K. Simkson as a Notary Public for the District of Columbia for the term of five years. ROOSEVELT (1858-1919) is one of America's most well-known and flamboyant presidents. Roosevelt's heroism in the Spanish-American War, where he earned the Medal of Honor for leading his volunteer "Rough Riders" in a charge up San Juan Hill (1898), helped him win the governorship of New York the next year. Elected Vice President in 1900, Roosevelt assumed the presidency upon President William McKinley's assassination (1901), becoming America's youngest president. He was re-elected in 1904. Roosevelt was the first American to win a Nobel Prize for Peace, receiving the 1906 award for mediating the end of the Russo-Japanese War. Known for his "Speak softly and carry a big stick" foreign policy, Roosevelt settled the Canadian-Alaskan boundary dispute in 1903 and initiated construction of the Panama Canal in 1904. He converted more than 125 million acres of land into national forests and was a staunch advocate of antitrust legislation. After failing to secure the Republican nomination, he ran as the Progressive ("Bull Moose") candidate in the famous presidential contest of 1912. He lost to Democrat Woodrow Wilson but securing more votes than incumbent William Howard Taft, becoming the most successful third-party candidate in recent United States history. WILLIAM H. MOODY (1853-1917) was an American politician and jurist, who held positions in all three branches of the Government of the United States. Moody graduated from Harvard, Phi Beta Kappa in 1876, where he was a classmate and friend of future President Theodore Roosevelt. During President Theodore Roosevelt's administration, Moody served as the Secretary of Navy (1902-1904) and as Attorney General (1904-1906). Later, Roosevelt nominated Moody as an Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court and Moody was confirmed December 17, 1906. Small tears on right edges (do not touch signature). Pinhole size stain to the right of the seal. Fine condition. See more material from these signers: PRESIDENT THEODORE ROOSEVELT ASSOCIATE JUSTICE WILLIAM H.
