An hour Ister the same stood in the office of the chief executive of Wyo- ming, smiling, exchanging pleasantries, shaking the hands of thousands and modestly receiving the adulation of fel- low Americans to whom he was the personification of the martial spirit that had won the greatest war in history. What a transition within the hour! from the golgotha of grief that time cannot assuage to the scene of a grate- ful commonwealth homage? The man was General John J. Per- shing. General Pershing’s visit just before dusk to the graves-of his wife and chil- dren was the one purely private event} of a day crowded with public functions which culminated with the greatest tri- umphant reception that ever has taken place within the walls of Wyoming's capitol. ‘Thousands of persons, each anxious to pay to him personal tribute of respect and admiration, crammed the rotunda, corridors .and offices of the capitol) building when General Pershing ar- rived and for hours thereafter filtered SADMEMORIESOFPAST | COUPLED WITH A TRUE WELCOME MARKS VISIT } friends,” General Pershing had said in F.
