Mr. Samuel w. Mccall tells this story
about the former speaker, who was an
unusually large man:
When his daughter katherine, or

girl she had cat to which she was
much devoted. One day the kitten was
sleeping in Reeds chair when he was
about to sit down. His daughter, in
horror, gave the chair Il sudden pull to
save the cat from humiliation, and as
result Mr. Rceu sat down heavily on
the floor. 1t was rather serious hap

a lesser man might easily have lost his
temper But the only notice he took
OF the matter was to say gravely after
