THE burden of the duties of

III the position with which I
- was honored were so exact
ing that 7 was forced to neglect
my private affairs just at a time
when they demanded my personal
attention more than ever before.
This played an important part in
the events which followed and
which, constitute one of the sad
dest chapters that has even been
written about the life of any man.
1t has been said that adversely
has its uses. This is undoubtedly
true, though the lessons taught
may sometimes be obtained at a
terrific price. Without trials we
would never know our strength.
Without storms, a house could as
well be built upon sand as upon
a foundation of rock.
Many men of virtue and honor
have been misunderstood and
have endured SANDER and ca
lumny, humiliation and disgrace
far beyond their deserts, courage
ously. and hu1nbly, because in
their heart Of hearts they knew
that they had committed no
wrong, Intentionally.
In the dark days Of adversely
many things are seen with a new
understanding. The Scriptures
take on g. new significance, and
many passages that had never
attracted any particular attention
come to the reader as a ray Of
light that pierces the shadows and
Eliminates and makes clear that
which had hitherto been either
complex or obscure.

grandchildren, Barbara Jane and

from my faith in the values OF
the vast holdings I had in land
and cattle, which I loved with an
inordinate fondness, and which
all at once became positively I'M
salable, and moreover, a great
burden to carry, I was forced to
extend my credit to meet the an
nual deficit.
I did not realize the unpara-
lelled and devastating shrinkage
that had taken place in all the
commodities in which the accu-
mutations of a long life Of illces-
SAINT toll and frugality were in
vested.
Still having faith that a count
try that was as prosperous as this
in every other line could not long
see it's basic industry, lie pros
trate and helpless, continued to
go ahead.
1 knew better than any one
else that every dollar that I had,
and every piece of property that
I owned, was behind every dollar
that I had obligated myself for,
whether there remained anything
for my wife and myself or not.
I could not believe that all the
vast equities that I had in the
property up to and including the
years 1919 and 1920, had dwindled
away until they were not ample
security for all those kind enough
to extend me credit.
