I have heard the facts, and I find it difficult to believe that so great a wrong could be attempted against a woman, and if the name of Cynthia Wetherell had meant no more to me than the letters in it I should have travelled twice as far as Brampton, old as I am, to do my utmost to right that wrong.

"Tiens tiens! I did him wrong," murmured Cigarette. "That is what they are the children of France even when they are at their worst, like that devil, Zackrist. Who dare say they are not the heroes of the world?"

Listen, for instance, to the despairing cry of John Randolph of Roanoke: "All wrong," said he of one of Marshall's opinions, "all wrong, but no man in the United States can tell why or wherein."
