Excerpt from American Boys' Life of William McKinley But at last came the time when he stood free to accept the highest office within the gift of the American people. He was made President amid the good wishes of all mem bers of his party, and later on was elected a second time by an increased vote, which showed that many who had formerly op posed him were now his supporters. Thus it was that this unknown boy, this humble soldier, this obscure lawyer, climbed the ladder of success from the very bottom to the very top, rung by rung, toiling faith fully, conscientiously, and with a strong religious conviction that as long as he did what was right he had no reason to fear for the future. This alone is a lesson which every American youth will do well to remember. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
