Miss Belle Glllis who practised her profession of nursing for many years in the big American City. and met many notables during that time describes the General as a most affable and friendly person.

The two principals in the wed- ding were both connected with the military career of the General and the bride was well known to the Misses Glilis.

The groom. Capt. Burr N. John- son Jr. was an side on the Gener- al's staff. and the bride was his secretary in Germany during the war and for a short time after- wards.'

The bride, Miss Francis Norma Smith. was the daughter of Dec- tor and Surgeon of the Army iii. M. Smith. The doctor's wife. a native of Montreal, was a former nurse. At the birth of the bride. Miss Belle Gillls had been the at- tending nurse and thereafter had been a friend of the Smith family down through the years.

The wedding was held in the Little Church Around the Corner. and the reception in the Hotel Commodore. The Misses Gillis still retain the wedding and reception invitations as mementos.

The General mingled with the guests at the reception in the ut- most good humor and exchanged quips with Miss Belle Gillie. lie iaughingly stated that the groom. Capt. Johnson was taking "Frank- ie"-his secretary's nickname-a- way from him. Miss Gillis who was included in the circle where the remark was made. corrected the now Presidential nominee. ”No General." she said, "Capt. Johnslon is taking 'Frankie' away from me. I brought her into the world".
