XVI.

MR. GEORGE T. SUMMERLIN.

Counsellor of the American Embassy with Ambassador Fletcher when he took office in 1917, and since January 1919 has been Chargé d’Affaires. “Summie,” as his intimate friends affectionately call him, has served his country well and has gained the respect and confidence of the Mexican people. His friends hope that his expected promotion will take him to the Court of St. James.
