With a frankness characterstic of his Western training, Mr Cody states that he has "captured England from the Queen down and is doing them to the tune of $10,000 a day." He confesses that it is pretty hard work with two and three performances a day and society racket, receptions, dinner, etc. No man, not even Grant, was received better than your humble servant." As a proof of this Mr.Cody days he has "dined with every one of the royalty from Albert Prince of Wales down." Ir is not to be wondered that these royal surroundings dazed Mr.Cody, causing him "to wonder if it is the same Bill Cody the bull-whacker" But with loyalty to old associations worthy of commendation, Mr.Cody concludes: "Well, I still wear the same sie hat and when I make my fill I a, coming back to visit all the old boys. If you meet any of them tell them I ain't got the big head worth a cent. I am over here for dust. Will be glad to hear fro, any of them."
