Ieneral Funston had worked at au unusual pace. At critical times in border developments, he frequently remained on dut.v 20 hours of the 24. The handling of regulars disposed of at various stations on the border, the Pershing expedition and of late, re arrangement of regular troop.s while providing for the return of National Guarflsmen, have entailed an enor nious amount of detail work, prob ably exceeding that which fell to any commander general of the I'nited Stat^s Army since the Civil War, General Funston completed orders during the day for the return of the last of the guardsmen. Because of the amount of work which has fallen to him General Funston’s only re-*- reation or relaxation for nearly a year has been an occasional dinner party with a few friends. Onl.v recently. General Funsti.n re turned from an inspecti.Mi Trip which took him as far as .\’i.gales. Ariz, That, with one trip to Brownsville Texas, and a brief visit to Austin. Texas, last year, were the only o‘- asions when he has been absent from his de.sk since the border trou ble developed. Two weeks ago. General Funsion sufiered an attack of indigestion. To use his own expression, "I fought it out alone.” Later he placed himseif nniler the care of Lieut. Col. M. W.
