Hugh Lenox Scott
Major General United States Army
Born 1853, died 1954
Distinguished alike for service to his country in military achievements and in the study and use of the Indian sign language.
A soldier valiant in action, wise in council, he successfully waged war to bring peace and by a rare combination of simplicity, integrity and courage he was able to know the hearts of alien peoples and to turn suspicious enemies into trusting and loyal friends. |
