Page's own family had responded to the call and this in itself was a cause of great contentment to a sick and weary man.

The Ambassador's youngest son, Frank, had obtained a commission and was serving in France; his son-in-law, Charles G.Loring, was also on the Western Front; while from North Carolina Page's youngest brother Frank and two nephews had sailed for the open battle line.

The bravery and success of the American troops did not surprise the Ambassador but they made his last days in England very happy.
Indeed, every day had some delightful experience for Page.

The performance of the Americans at Cantigny especially cheered him.

The day after this battle he and Mrs.Page entertained Mr.Lloyd George and other guests at lunch.
