A memorial book to honor the memory of Major Archibald W. Butt and Mr. Francis D. Millet. It has been suggested (And this suggestion has the approval or the president) that an enduring memorial be erected on public grounds in Washington. It is believed that they were the only officers of the united states who went down with the "Titanic." Also, they had been close personal friends for years, living in the same house in Washington, and were companions on their last voyage. Together they gave up their lives that others might live. And it seems fitting that a memorial be erected to them jointly.
