E. MASON SUPERBLY ILLUSTRATED REGAN PRINTING HOUSE CHICAGO, ILLINOIS COPYRIGHT 1901, MUBIr CBLICAGO, PREFACE The personal love of the author and editor of this work for President McKinley is one of the main reasons which has impelled him to give it to the public. For many years he was acquainted with the President chiefly through a com mon relationship as army comrades. His respect, well-nigh bordering on reverence, for Major McKinley, has been heightened by increasing years. There was a steady growth in beauty of feature and in wisdom and power as advancing positions of trust came to this illustrious man. He with the upward rose and with the vastness grew. Every king be coming grace of character was found in him and was ex pressed in new and striking forms as occasion arose. The magnificent eulogies which have been pronounced upon him, touching every phase of his many-sided, matchless life, were but dull beside the truth. The wonderful funeral accorded him, unprecedented in the worlds history, attests the hold he had upon the hearts of his countrymen, and the spontaneous tributes of respect from all quarters of theglobe, evinced the well-nigh univer sal esteem with which he was regarded. All that tongue or pen or art can do to perpetuate his memory and widen the knowledge of his life and services is the just demand of the American people. His life was gentle, and the elements So mx d in Mm that nature might stand up And say to all the world, This was a man m CITY LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS Mr. William McKinley. Mrs. William McKinley .
