Godfrey’s Message June 2, 1926 The Billings High School Senior Class, Billings. Montana: It is a pleasure to note the interest of the younger generation in the epochal events of the fading frontier. I am gratified to be called upon for greetings and to know that you intend using material I have gathered for your year hook of 1926. To an intimate friend. General Custer revealed himself as he thought of himself. “It is said that I am impulsive and rash. 1 resent that. When an emergency arises there instantly flashes in my mind all my experiences and studies of analogous con- ditions and situations, and instantly my plans of actions are formed and acted upon In my studies of military history 1 al- ways endeavored to analize conditions, movements, actions and results.” These are not his exact words, but the substance of the conversation. Wishing you all success in your life endeavors. Sincerely yours, E. S. Godfrey Cookstown, New Jersey
