My object^ however, in writing this note is to oflfer you my opinion simply as mine. You have gained everything in com- pelling Duncan to acknowledge that you have been right and he wrong. You are in the highest position that any man in power can occupy, when you can afford to be magnanimous, and refrain from punishing where you have the power to punish and where punishment has been deserved. Your position is even still better — ^you can save a man from ruin, where no consideration at your hand...s has been merited. It is not often that men have an opportunity of acting with this sweet and abiding sense of satis- faction. If I were in your place, I should do what I have ventured to suggest. Having thus hastily unburdened my mind, I shall not go behind your back to express my opinion to your colleagues, and I am quite sure you will appreciate my speaking plainly to yourself." Most people would see little or nothing in a letter of this kind at which to be angry. They would recognise in it, the friendly counsel of a colleague, as well as a desire to serve an erring IKend.
