hours were spent on the plains,
before a third automobile came up,
The party arrived in Torrance thirty
minutes too late to catch the Santa
Fe Central train and therefore had
to spend Sunday in that rather warm
summer resort. The local entertain
ment committee being notified OF the
plight Of Santa Fe's guest of honor,
arranged for a special train which
brought the visitors to Santa Fe at
midnight. That Mr.. Hadley took the
disagreeable and tiresome features Of
his trip rather humorously is indicat.
