Sandy KOSSIN - Life story illustration, 1964.

From a three-part series, "MacArthur's Reminiscences," published in Life magazine starting with the January 10, 1964, issue that was illustrated by Sandy Kossin. The original artwork for five of these illustrations were apparently given to the MacArthur Memorial in 2000. This illustration accompanied part II of the series, from a section where MacArthur describes events of February 19, 1917, when he went to Secretary of War Newton Baker's home to report the sudden death of General Frederick Funston to the Secretary and to President Woodrow Wilson. "MacArthur entered the dining room, clicked his heels together, saluted President Wilson and announced, 'Sir, I regret to report that General Funston has just died.'"
