I regard him as being badly advised. For example, he told me that no longer ago than this afternoon he affixed his official signature to a veto of Senator Stickney's measure in regard to the warehouses of our state " As Devore jumped up he overturned the major's toddy right in the major's lap. He didn't stop to beg pardon, though; in fact, none of us stopped.
The major's blaring notes would cross-cut Devore's nerves as with a dull and haggling saw. He Devore I mean disliked the major with a dislike almost too deep for words. It had got to be an obsession with him. "You fellows that were born down here have to stand for him," he said once, when the major had stumped out on his short legs after an unusually long visit.
And with that he bowed and turned on his heel and went out, leaving Devore shaking all over with the superhuman task of trying to hold himself in. About ten minutes later, when I came out bound for my boarding house, the major was standing at the front door. He looped one of his absurdly small fingers into one of my buttonholes.
He gave a bellow and heaved himself up on the stage and, before any of us could move, grabbed Devore by the throat with his left hand and jammed him back, face upward, on the table until I thought Devore's spine would crack.
As DeVore walked through the corridor, he thought over the situation. Of course, the easy way out would be to force Consolidated to continue the payments in addition to their license fees from Central. That could be done. There were all kinds of methods by which pressure could be brought to bear on any company by the district leader's office.
Such a wrong is to be healed, not avenged. Fire purifies all. "Mon ame est comme un feu qui devore et parfume Ce qu'on jette pour le ternir." December 27, 1880 In an article I have just read, Biedermann reproaches Strauss with being too negative, and with having broken with Christianity.
In the one quick glance that I took I translated his expression to mean something like this: "Good Heavens, is this any way for a party of gentlemen to break up! This could never happen at a gentlemen's club." It was a foot-race back to the office, and Devore, who had the start, won by a short length. Luckily the distance was short, not quite half a block, and the presses hadn't started yet.
