Ameri can Red Cross War Council, which handled the Red Cross campaign for its $1,000,000,000 fund tells this story of the devotion to public duty shown by Joseph H. Choate to the very last. "Two or. three days before Mr. Choate died, I called up his house about six o'clock at night. It was dur ing the week that the British and French commissioners' were in New York and Mr. Choate was going about with them all day long, al though eighty-three years of age. I called up his house and asked if I could see him. They said that he was out and that I probably could not see him that afternoon, because when he came in he had to turn right around and go out at seven o'clock to a din ner with the British and French com missions, but if I could get to his house before half past nine the next morning, I should probably have an opportunity to see him. So I arrived kit his house in time and found him up and all ready to go out with the1 I British and French Commission again nounce that he has moved his office to wron? name for a male he wagged . for the day.
