NEVER TENDER FATHER
LEO ToLsTov NOT A MAN TO IN
sPiRE AFFECTION.
His Son Writes That He Only said
"oocd Night" and "oood Morning"
to His Children az a Matter
Of Duty.

There was one distinguishing and,
at first sight, peculiar trait, In my IA
ther's character, due perhaps to the
fact that he grew up without mother.
and that was that all exhibitions Of
tenderness were entirely foreign to
him.
say tenderness in contradiction
to heartiness. Heartiness he had.
and In very high degree.
His description Of the death of my
Uncle Nlkolai is characteristic In this
connection. In letter to his other
brother Sergei Nikolaievitch. in
which he described the last day Of his
brothers life, my father tells how he
helped him to undress:
He submitted, and became differ
ent man. He had a word OF praise for
everybody, and said to me: Thanks.
my friend You understand the sig
nifcance OF the words as between US
two"
II is evident that in the language OF
the Tolstoy brothers the phrase my
friend" was an expression of tender
ness beyond which Imagination could
not go. The words astonished my fa-
ther even on the lips Of his dying
brother.
During all his lifetime I never re-
him whatever.
He was not fond OF kissing children.
and when he did SO in saying good
morning or good night, he did It merely
as a duty.
1t Is therefore easy to understand
that he did not provoke any display o;
tenderness toward himself. and that
nearness and dearness with him were
never accompanied by any outward
manifestations.
II would never have come into my
head, for instance. to walk up to my
father and kiss him or to stroke his
hand. I was partly prevented also
from that by the fact that always
looked upon him with awe, and his
spiritual power, his greatness. pre-
vented me from seeing in him the
mere man-the man who was SO plain
tive and weary at times, the feeble
old man who SO much needed warmth
and rest.
The years will pass. The accumu-
lated incrustations which hide the
truth will pass away. Much will be
wiped out and forgotten. Among 9TH
er things my fathers will will be for
gotten--that will which he himself
looked upon as an Unnecessary out
ward means" And men will see more
clearly that legacy Of love and truth
In which he believed deeply. and
which. according to his words. can
not perish without trace"
In conclusion. I cannot refrain from
quoting the opinion Of one Of my kins-
men who. after my fathers death, read
the diaries kept both by my father and
my mother during the autumn before
