THE DEVOTION OF
PULLMAN TO HIS MOTHER

In the many discussions of the charac-
ter and conduct of the late George NJ.
Pullman, very much has naturally been
said of his treatment of his two sons
whom he practically disinherfted. lie
has been condemned and commended
approved and abused, by those VINO
passed Judgment upon his last will and
testament from varying and diverse
points of view. But little has been told
of the tender love and unfailing devotion
exhibited by the sleeping car magnate
for his aged mother. AS soon as Mr..
Pullman became a man of wealth, he
surrounded his mother with every COM
fort and luxury, and, as his fortune in
creased, made the fact manifest by
making his mothers home more and
more luxurious Castle Rest, the mag
nificent summer residence of Mr. Pull
man, was built especially with regard
to his mothers tastes and fancies, and
each summer she was the honored and
INDUCED guest of loyal, loving son.
There was a sentimental side to the
otherwise hard, unsympathetic charac-
ter of Mr.. Pullman, which was evil
dence1 by the provision made by him
for the celebra ton of his mothers birth
day by annual family reunions at Cas-
tie Rest. These are intended to continue
from the latter part of July until the
18th of August. In his will, Mr. Pull
man provided a certain sum to be ap
piled in this direction, so that his moth
er's memory shall be kept in affectionate
remembrance for years to come. Ths
devotion of the sleeping car inventor to
his mother will cover a multitude of
sins, whether of omission or commission.
