by Ambassador Choate along that line and
the presence of the uniformed nurses and
doctors of the American hospital snip
Maine were the features.
Mr.. Choate, in response to toast to his
own health, which was received with loud
cheering, said there could not be better

that we may be permitted to act In this
errand OF mere humanity"
