The fact that I recollect nothing more of those days than having learnt, in company with other boys, to call our teacher all kinds of names, would strongly suggest that my intellect must have been sluggish, and my memory raw.”

“Men flocked to see it and ascended it as it was a novelty and of unique dimensions. It was the toy of the exhibition.

“I had always heard the merchants say that truth was not possible in business. I did not think so then, nor do I now.
