And in that passing we all take a dee) breath, recount the many virtues of this fine man, and solemnly and profoundly say: "lloodhyc, Harry, you have greeted us your last time, you have smoothed out local troubles, have cashed our checks, have reserved us rooms, have given us that service with a smile for years, and throughout th'at time no Imperial guest has ever witnessed you in bad humor. Your smile was as reg ular as the call to lunch, your patience was inexhaustible, your sterling worth o the traveling public has ever been pronounced, and your reward today is the saddened hearts of thousands who read in the newspapei-s of vour untimely dtalh.'
