Bill as anyone living. The Colonel
never lost an opportunity of boost
ing for his home town, Cody, Wyo-

ton to spend his old days here and
be buried here. Many a time in
an after dinner speech / have heard
him tell this story:
There is a mountain near Cody
that has a spring of water at its
base. When the atmosphere was
in a right condition a cloud would
form around the top IF the noun

hot springs. The question was
many times asked by the many Wis

ticular cloud? And Colonel said
the answer was invariably given.
that Colonel Cody is going to be
buried OF Esp OF that mountain and
the old man below is fixing up and
getting ready for him AS he is get

some forty years ago, when Charles

foresight and personality of Colonel
