widely known attorney of San Fran
cisco, was a student at the University
of California he was also local corre-
spondent for the San Francisco Bulle-
tin. At commencement he was chosen,
following the college custom. to make
one Of the orations upon the campus.
He spoke at the base of the historic
LIE Conte oak tree. In the next issue
Of the Bulletin appeared a dispatch
mentioning the other orators briefly,
but paying high tribute to Richard
OConnor for his mastery eloquence.
A few days late Tom o'Connor, also
a leading San Francisco lawyer and
an older brother of Richard, met the
latter.
aDick" Tom said, 81 gather from
your own dispatch that you rather
distinguished yourself at commence,
ment. Was your speech really as good
as you said 1t was?"
"Tom," Dick said, "modesty Is the
badge OF all our tribe, and so l hate
to talk about myself. You can Judge
for yourself the merits Of lmy grafton
when | tell you it contained just four
more words than Lincolh's Gettys-
burg address. -Saturoay Ifehihs
