Nashville Welcomes Roosevelt.
-----
Nashville, Tenn., Oct.
22--President Roosevelt stopped off in this city today on his way in Washington.
On the arrival of the special train at the station where thousands of cheering
people had gathered, a special reception committee made a passway to the street
where carriages were in waiting. The reception committee was headed by
Gov. Patterson and Mayor Brown and included Company B, Confederate Veterans, who
acted as an escort to the president. Owing to the limited time the program was
confined to the president's speech and a short drive about the city. Later
the president was escorted to the Hermitage, the old of Andrew Jackson, where he
was received by the Ladies Hermitage association.
