To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It enabled him to keep the wonderful record of never having lost his temper, no matter what agony he 56 had to bear. A whole night might be spent in recounting the stories of his wit, humor, and harmless sarcasm.
But I will recall only two of his sayings, both about General Grant, who always found plenty of enemies and critics to urge the President to oust him from his command. One, I am sure, will interest all Scotchmen. They re- peated with malicious intent the gossip that Grant drank. " What... does he drink ? " asked Lincoln.
" Whiskey " was, of course, the answer ; doubtless you can guess the brand. " Well," said the President, "just find out what particular kind he uses and I'll send a barrel to each of my other Generals/' The other must be as pleasing to the British as to the 57 American ear. When pressed again on other grounds to get rid of Grant, he declared, " I can't spare that man, he fights ! " He was tender-hearted to a fault, and never could resist the appeals of wives and mothers of soldiers who had got into trouble and were under sentence of death for their offences.
