When a case was entrusted to me I sought to master every question connected with it. And if my clients were not successful it was for no want of time and thought on my part." If genius be, as defined, "the capacity for taking in- finite pains," then he had far more than a touch of genius. But it is not merely nor mainly because of what he accomplished in the high positions which he held that the study of his life is so well worth while, as because of the high mo- tives which swayed him and the ...increasing purpose to serve his day and generation, his country and humanity that ran like an irresis- tible current through the years from beginning to end. 8 As he turned and looked back nearly a dec- ade ago, over the long way along which he had been led, he wrote on the last page of his Memoirs: "The retrospect of a life of more than three-score years and ten occasions much satisfaction and little regret, thanks to a kind Providence, a favoring government and a host of friends." He had so little to regret, be- cause during his fifty years of public duty he had never been betrayed, like the great Eng- lish cardinal, into serving his God with only half the zeal he served his country or his party.
