LETTERS OF COMMENDATION FROM PROMINENT MILITARY MEN FROM AN OLD COMMANDER. [COPY.] 5th Avenue Hote, New York, June 29, 1887

Hon. WM. F. CODY, London, England

Dear CODY :-In common with all your countrymen, I want to let you know that I am not only gratified, but proud of your management and general behavior; so far as I can make out you have been modest, graceful and dignified in all you have done to illustrate the history of civilization on this Continent during the past century.

I am especially pleased with the graceful and pretty compliment paid you by the Princess of Wales, who rode in the Deadwood Coach while it was attacked by the Indians ans rescued by the cow-boys. Such things did occur in our day, and may never again.
