Visitors who, from curiosity or business, have
called at the White House, must have been
impressed by the courteous yet systematic
manner with which they were received and
escorted through the mansion. The gente-
men whose duty it is to receive oil persons
coming 10 the White House are Colonel
~ =. Denmore, Mr.. John T. Mcknrd and
Mr., T. +. Pendol, and they have occupied
their present positions through the various
administrations since and even during
the war. Mr. Pendel was President
Lincoln sboly guard saw him g. his carriage
the fatal night ON which he visited Ford
theatre, and he now has I'm his possession the

while Hayes held the rcins OF govcrnm mt,
and when Garfield was sho,, it was these men
who stood in the executive mansion wecom
ing the advent of eaci new administration,

gott summer when President Garfield lay
between "two worlds the nation became
aware of the deadly malarial influences which
hung about the White House. But all through
that period these three men never deserted
their posts for single day, although each
one was suffering intensely. In conversation
with the writer, Colonel Densmore said:

and treat the thousands of visitors who come
here daily with courtesy when one is in

And yet you are all the embodiment of
health, said the writer, as he looked at the
three bright and vigorous men before him.
"Oh, yes said Mr.. Rickard, I'VE have
not known what sickness was for more than
year"
"Have you some secret way of overcom-
ing the malaria and its attendant horrorsF'.
Il think we have most certain way re-
piled Colonel Densmore, "but it is no secret.
