1t is not often that a man, in looking back
upon the story of his life, can fix the precise
moment at which his fate underwent a
change that was destined TO affect his whole
future career. Sometimes, however, that
turning point, when the current of ones
existence was altered for the better or the
worse stands out prominently among the
everyday incidents of a life, and it Is posi-
BILE to say just when and where the great
change was wrought that has made the man
what he now is.
