    In September, 2007, Prince Albert II of Monaco dedicated the new Monaco ambassador's residence on Wyoming Avenue in Washington, D. C., in a colorful ceremony attended by an actor costumed as the legendary Buffalo Bill Cody, recalling the 1913 American visit of the prince's great-grandfather (and namesake), who was hosted by Buffalo Bill on a hunting expedition near Cody, Wyoming, that lasted for several weeks. Among other fauna, the first Prince Albert (then Monaco's reigning monarch) killed a black bear and an elk. He also expressed a wish that he could serve as Mayor of Cody, Wyoming -- had he not already been burdened with other duties back in Monte Carlo. During an 80th anniversary visit in 1993, Albert II (whose mother was the American actress Grace Kelly) toured the site in Wyoming, which is near the east entrance of Yellowstone Park. Although crumbling, Buffalo Bill's old log hunting lodge still stands, and is now a tourist attraction; a dinner for Albert II was held inside.

Col. Cody bidding C. Gates goodbye (LOC)

    Charles Gilbert Gates, multimillionaire son of the legendary financier John W. ("Bet-a-Million") Gates, had gone on a hunting expedition near Cody, Wyoming, the home of Buffalo Bill Cody, in hopes of restoring his health and vigor. Soon after this photo was taken, Gates was in his private train car on a siding in Cody, celebrating his hunting prowess, when he was suddenly stricken and died. His body was returned to New York City for a funeral that was held on November 2, 1913. The Funeral: The irrepressibe Mr. Gates:
