RETIRED PRESIDENTS.
What Some of Them Did After Leaving
the White House.

When man had reached the top
round of political preferment and was
called down by the limitations of the
tenure of Office, it was formerly no
small problem for him to decide what
to do with himself

son thus spent seventeen peaceful years

ample of stepping from the presidents
chair into active politics. He was
leader of the lower house for nineteen

dents were more fortunate Grants
