He recounted that a few days ago, he had met General Miles at his friend's house. The General had asked him if he had lived in Washington in 1867. He replied affirmatively, saying that he had. Then the General had inquired how it could have happened that they hadn't met back then. He explained that they couldn't have met because the General was already a renowned general at the time, while he himself was a young writer whom nobody knew and whose books nobody read. He thought to himself that the General didn't remember him, but they had crossed paths once in Washington during that time.
