Who knew?
Who knew?
“... the most modest, the most disinterested, and the most
honest man I ever knew, with a temper that nothing could disturb and a judgment
that was judicial in its comprehensiveness and wisdom. Not a great man, except morally, not an
original or brilliant man, but sincere, thoughtful, deep and gifted with
courage that never faltered. When the
time came to risk all, he went in like a simple-hearted, unaffected,
unpretending hero, whom no ill omens could deject and no triumph unduly exalt.” Charles Dana, as commissioner for the war
department and former newspaperman at the New York Tribune, knew U.S. Grant and
rendered that assessment. Who can dispute the existence of the ‘good ‘ole days’
when men were men?
