This name carried a most remarkable flavor of personality, and yet I cannot recall a single thing about the man or what we did for him. I merely know that he made a very definite impression on the office, that we were in contact with him in an atmosphere of considerable interest and architectural excitement for some little time, and then the whole thing just faded out.
