DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Cleveland The father would often trade with his boys, dicker and bargain with them as he would with grown men, seeking always to instil into them the truth that self-reliance was the best help for anyone. They knew how to milk cows, take care of the chickens and other fowls, how to harness and drive horses, and feed and clean them. Mr. Rockefeller would lend sums of money to his son John, which the boy used to invest;-yet at times, as a test of resourcefulness, the father would suddenly demand his own, and the boy always managed to pay him back on demand. With all their work and trading the boys still had time enough for a healthy amount of play. They swam and fished in beautiful Owasco Lake, and when the family removed to a home three miles above Owego, New York, they lived near the right bank of the Susquehanna River in its most fascinating windings among the green hills of Tioga County, and the boys had a beautiful country to work and play in.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from A Life of Grover Cleveland The accompanying Life of Grover Cleveland may be considered a supplement to my volume of his "Writings and Speeches," issued in June last. While making the researches necessary for that, I was struck with the paucity and weakness of the literature that had grown up about this virile political figure. Coming to the front as he did without notice, rounding out a political career in an unprecedentedly brief time, no serious and intelligent attempt had ever been made to bring out in anything like connected form the words and a history of the acts that represented what Mr. Cleveland is, and what he means to the American people. Most of the sketches extant were written in 1884 and re-issued in 1888, almost without revision. They are of little value as a record of his career, or an estimate of his character.

In a word, she has acquired a character of her own that is as remarkable for its noble traits as it is for its originality.
