65 years ago today - May 29, 1949

[David O. McKay diary] [At the dedication of the Downey Ward Chapel:] At conclusion of the services hundreds came up for autographs, greeting, etc., Among them was a Methodist Minister who waited an hour to shake hands, and asked for my autograph. My pen had run dry, and he handed me his, saying, 'I shall always cherish this pen as being used by a distinguished gentleman.'
