For many months Wichita people have
observed an old man dressed in suit OF

his coat, carrying in one hand q small
grip and in the other sometimes a book
and sometimes a parcel. walking along
the streets. Wichita people who have no

was or what of his history.
The years Of his life has brought to
him more than to the average mortal and
fate has not yet finished her work with
the man who bears the name Of Samuel

Twenty-Five years ago Samuel Z. Dav-
idson, with his family, bought farm in
Kingman county. He erected a home.

given for 500. secured by mortgage on
the farm. Davidson worked steadily 10

The financial trouble caused The farmer
hard work and much worry. He bro0ded
over the matter so long that il was no

however. In those days it took much
effort to secure the coin Of the realm ana
that was what Davidson was after. HIS

OF Kngman county and DAVIDSON was sent
to the state insane asylum. That was in

probate court Of that county, Davidson
creditors took charge Of the farm and Sc
cured it under the foreclosure Of the

guardian appointed to take care Of the
property and it went TO the creditors.
Davidson's wife and children left the
farm, by request Of the persons VINO Sc
cured the property. Just what they did
it is not exactly known, but some time
later Mrs. Davidson married q man who
had property in Butler county. Some Of

This stale of affairs kept up until 1893,
when one day q man of strange actions

you. Mr.. Rossignol, l extend the heart
LET thanks of every cadet here to Mrs.
possignol for the most beautiful gift.
And it is not only the mere value of
his flag that we thank her, but it is
tbe feeling that prompts her. Surely
sbould she, being only indirectly asso-
cated with the school. feel SO great an
interest in it's welfare, every cadet
nresent. directly associated with the
school. should be so greatly interested
in this battalion that no duty imposed
IN him, however great, should cause
him to falter. May this flag prove a
great inspiration to us all, and may
II inspire us to make the battalion this
wear the greatest success in the history
of the school. May it inspire us to hon
mr. II and the great nation which it rep
resents. And if at any time in the flu
tnre. as citizens of this country, we
are called upon to defend it's sacred
honor, am sure 1 voice the sentiment
of every cadet here when I say that
its beautiful folds will never fall upon
the ground of dishonor or will never
be dragged through the mire of degree
dation We will stand by it and defend
the QODle IIeH anu WOiIlcIl IL
This is a United States military school
and we are here, not only to receive
an education, but to receive instruc-
tons of the tactics used in time of
war and believe this flag will inspire
us to do better our work.
IN behalf of these cadets I receive
from and give thanks to Mrs. Rossig-
nol for this beautiful, magnificent and
appropriate gift"
After the presentation a chorus of
