On the shores of the Hudson, by the cliffs of Newport, under the elms of New Haven, as well as in the metropolis where he had so long dwelt, faithful hearts rejoiced at the announcement. "Few are aware," said Hillhouse, in his Eulogy on Lafayette, "how hallowed and how deep are their feelings who worship Liberty as a mistress they may never possess."
After prolonged effort there is exhaustion and nervous languor that cannot always wait upon the restorative work of nutrition; indeed, the nutritive organs themselves often need stimulation before they can act with due vigor. Isn't that so, Dr. Hillhouse?" And the clergyman addressed a handsome old man with hair almost as white as snow who stood listening to the conversation.
Have you asked Doctor Hillhouse in regard to the facts in the case? He attended Mrs. Ridley, I think." "No. I've been afraid to ask him." "It might relieve your mind." "Do you think I would feel any better if he said yea instead of nay? No, Mr. Elliott. I am afraid to question him." "It's a sad affair," remarked the clergyman, gloomily, "and I don't see what is to be done about a it.
When I made the first attempt, not a single feature could I recall distinctly to my memory and I almost despaired of a likeness, but the thought of lessening the affliction of such a distressed family determined me to attempt it a second time. The result is on the ivory. I then showed it to my brothers, to Mr. Evarts, to Mr. Hillhouse, to Mr. Mallory, and to Mr.
A groan that sounded like a wail of desperation broke from Mr. Ridley's lips as he came in with the doctor and looked at the death-stricken countenance of his wife.

He stood irresolute for several moments. "Most unfortunate!" he ejaculated. Then, going into his office, he rang the bell and ordered his carriage brought round immediately. Dr. Angier had made no exaggerated report of Mrs. Ridley's condition. Dr. Hillhouse found that serious complications were rapidly taking place, and that all the symptoms indicated inflammation of the peritoneum.
"Has any change taken place since we left?" asked Dr. Hillhouse, with a professional calmness it required some effort to assume. "She is in great distress, moaning and sobbing and crying out as if in dreadful pain, and she doesn't know anything you say to her." The two physicians looked at each other with sober faces. "You'd better see her again," said Dr. Hillhouse, speaking to his assistant.
"Mr. Ridley, as I have been informed," returned Dr. Hillhouse, "has been an intemperate man. After falling very low, he made an earnest effort to reform, and so far got the mastery of his appetite as to hold it in subjection. Such men are always in danger, as you and I very well know. In nine cases out of ten or, I might say, in ninety-nine cases in a hundred to taste again is to fall.
It is indeed a noble art and if pursued effectually leads to the highest eminence, for painters rank with poets, and to be placed in the scale with Milton and Homer is an honor that few of mortal mould attain unto.... I wish, Finley, that you would paint me a handsome piece for a keepsake as you are going to Europe and may not be back in a hurry. Present my respects to Mr. Hillhouse.
