In other cases the critic is obliged to support his journal's repute for severity, or for wit, or for morality, though he may himself be entirely amiable, dull, and wicked; this necessity more or less warps his verdicts. The worst is that he is personal, perhaps because it is so easy and so natural to be personal, and so instantly attractive.
Finally, when the overtaking binders had stopped near-by, he took out a small shaft and held it up so that the harvesters could see it. "Journal's bent; I'll have to go get a new piece," he said. "Go ahead with your teams." After that he unhitched his horses and was leading them past the place where the Jernynghams sat, when Gertrude spoke to him.
On which side lay the deviation from truth it was impossible to say; but if one respectable journal's assertions were true, the others surely were false. It was strange and laughable to read on one bulletin board, "Republican Victory! Election of Hayes!

He saw six fights and never shot off his gun once because as he said it was not his business to kill people and he has persuaded me that he is right, so I won't do anything but look on I have bought at The Journal's expense a fifty dollar field glass which is a new invention and the best made.
The Journal's epitaph was promptly written by a scurrilous opponent in lines showing that the prominences of Fielding's profile were well-known: Beneath this stone Lies Trott Plaid John His length of chin and nose. See the Gentleman's Magazine, November 1748. "In God's Name let us speak out honestly and set the good against the bad." No. 48 of the Jacobite's Journal.
