To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I do, however, wish to touch briefly upon cer- tain characteristics of the man which appealed particularly to me. Congressman Cushman abhorred sensationalism. He alwavs evidenced the greatest contempt for the individual who would put aside personal convictions in order to gain favor with the mob that appeared to be, for the time being, in public favor. He has frequently expressed to me an abiding faith in the common sense of the great American people, contending that, although perhaps temporari...ly swayed by the clamor of demagogues, they could be depended upon eventually, under the calm judgment of second thought, to return to that which was sane. Others might be carried off their feet by those cycles of hysteria which sweep across the continent, but Cushman never came under the spell. He was the sworn enemy of every sham, and it was a delight to listen to him unburden himself when he found some one in sympathy with his state of mind. He was a poor boy and had never known leisure. He died possessed of small means, but he left a record of a life full of successes and an honorable name, which are more valuable than vast estates.
