Ambrose Biercc in San Francisco Examiner
The late John r. Swift was fairly good
hater. Some years ago discovered that
he was camping on my trail and diligently
stampeding my cattle whenever he could
get ut them. This did not greatly surprise
me, but Is we had always treated one
another with friendly civility when We
met, was interested in the mystery Of his
animosity. So asked him about it.
j 81 ought not to annow you," he said, "a
man who makes hdlf-dozen enemies every
week of his life should expect to find them
where he is not looking for them"
"Oh, that is all right" replied; ''but a
man like you ought not to mind the
trouble Of expounding his hatreds.'
It turned out that his hostility was
based on belief that was the author of
slashing criticism of his novel, Robert
Greathouse, and for fifteen years he had
been s.getting even" On my assurance
that had not written nor even seen the
criticisms he offered bis hand and the
confessed that he was tireless hater, but
said he knew how to forgive.
Happy had been If willing to let well
enough alone. but urged by the demon of
the perverse went on to strengthen my
case by assuring Mr.. Swift that not only
never even read il. From that time he
hated me even worse than ever, and
am sure that when dying in a distant
land the rejection that he had never
left stone unturned if he thought me
under it must have been q solace and q
balm to his spirit. At least honestly
hope so; and on my part am comforted
by the memory of many an accepted OPP
portunity to work him woe in the days
when he ran for governor. All, we'll, it is
really all over now, and loving him at last,
feel assurance that if he and | ever meet
in the different world We shall not respect
one another less for having been good
enemies in this.
