Recounting a Visit to a Real King in Udine
The writer recalls meeting a modest Italian king near Udine who could be elected president, noting his alliance with a Socialist cabinet and his rapport with workers. Henry and Medill describe the royal encounter, the colonel’s rebuke, and the king’s quiet, unassuming manner amid Italy’s socio political contrasts. The trip also explores Frascatti's rural poverty, land ownership that never sells, and the agrarian questions facing Italy's modern era.

Bland Fulton, a motorman on the Sullivan Cottage Car, suffered a nervous shock after a 4 year old darted toward the tracks on Bates street. An older boy crossed first and the younger followed, leaning forward as the car closed in. Fulton reversed power, the overhead switch snapped, and the child stepped back just in time. Another near miss involved Edward Logan, another motorman, with a wagon push by an older girl.
