Beschrijving
The Man Known by Everyone. Three friends get together after several years and talk about their travels and experiences. The first one says that during a celebration in Paris General de Gaulle greeted him by name. The second one was in Washington where President Johnson shook his hand. The third one, who is named Miller, tells about his experience in Rome: “A hundred thousand people were gathered in St. Peter’s Square. When the pope arrived, carried in his gestatorial chair, he caught sight of me and motioned to me to come up and sit in the chair beside him, which I did. As they carried us along towards St. Peter’s I could hear the people asking, ‘Who is that sitting next to Mr. Miller?’” [X905].
