especially appropriate to have had him
meet the present speaker, Joseph E.
Cannon, and accompany him across the
state But. the health Of the ex-speaker
would not permit. In fact it is now
known that his retirement is final. He
has moved about very little since his
return from New York. and 1t is known
among his intimate friends that be-
cause Of his illness, the pain from his
amputated leg and for other reasons his
mind has become so affected that he
will never again be able to go on the
stump. He is said to have lost his re-
markable memory and is forgetful of
the commonest facts long familiar to
him.
