CHAPTER 8

.

Ingratitude in Politics.
THERE's no crime so mean as ingratitude in politics, but every great statesman from the beginnin' of the world has been up against it.

Caesar had his Brutus; that king of Shakespeare's--Leary, I think you call him--had his own daughters go back on him; Platt had his Odell, and I've got my "The" McManus.

It's a real proof that a man is great when he meets with political ingratitude.

Great men have a tender, trustin' nature.
