And another wonderful, wonderful lady with the same name was Marilyn McCormick, the widow of the Colonel McCormick of the Chicago Tribune Corporation. And Marilyn lived in the near north side and Hope brought her on as zoo society board. Marilyn also served on the Anti-Cruelty Society board with me, the local Humane Society. And Marilyn used to go out to Wheaton, which is a west suburb of Chicago Cantigny, there’s a famous museum that Colonel McCormick established about his life and history of World War I. And Marilyn would call me at times and say, “Les, I’m going out to Cantigny, are you free today?” And I’d look at my calendar and if I was, I’d say, “Yes, Marilyn.” And I’d get in the car with her and drive out and spend an hour or two at Cantigny. The drive there was miserable because she had two little Pekinese dogs, and damn things were jumping all over me on the ride out and on the way back. But other than that, I endured and adored Marilyn. And she and Hope, I think maybe were cousins, I’m not quite sure of the relationship, but the two families, Colonel McCormick and the Cyrus McCormick families, the Harvester story were I think cousins.
