President Roosevelt recently made 1t
known to certain Georgia Congressman
that he would be glad to off to the
widow of General John 3. Gordon a
government appointment II she was dis
posed to accepG it. The Atlanta News
thus comm ents on the incident:
There was a delicate so'icitude on the
part of President Roosevelt in the infor-
NAL inquiries he made of southern gen.
tlemen in Congress whether the circum-
stances in which Mrs John B. Gordon
had been left by her distinguished hus-
band were such as TO make an executive
appointment acceptable. 1t was a spon-
taneous evidence of regard which was
fully appreciated by the family, but the
gentlemen Of whom these inquiries were
made, knowing Mrs. GOrdon's circum-
stances, were able to inform the Presi-
dent that fortunately she was not in
need of such an appointment. Aside
from her own competency, the widow
of the beloved general has home with
her own devoted children ever at her
command, so there could be no occasion
for her to entertain the thought OF ac-
cepting such an appointment, nor for
any member Of the family, since the
suggestion had been entirely informal,
TO even enter into corr aspondence in re-
gard TO the matter. The incident went
no further than an evidence on the part
Of the President of the high esteem in
which he held one of the knightliest
gentlemen and bravest soldiers Of the
civil war.
