Oidy churl would grudge him the relaxation he has enjoved. lor, tlioun he may exert himself to an extent may be deemed "unncces" Har. he is the jiule of his own af fairs and his own .opinion must be his rule of action.

It is evident that he is not a politician, and if he does not mnk things hum in his oiliee it will oc strange.
