Millikex vividlj'and forciblj' illustrates the possibilities of American citizenship. The honored i^osition he attained in the councils of the nation was due in no degree to the accident of birth or fortuitoixs circumstances. From the early age of 14 years, when he left his country home to secure an edu- cation, with $3 which his grandmother had given him from her Revolutionary war pension, the only contribution for this piirpose he ever had, and walked 40 miles to save stage fare, he was v. 'h...olly the architect of his own fortunes. To a youth of less resolute mold and tenacity of purpose the ob- stacles in his way would have seemed insurmountable; but though his financial resources were meager, he was not without capital. He had inherited a vigorous constitution, and hard work in the open air, amid the rugged hills of his native town, had given him the buoyancy of good health, and taught him habits of industry that he retained through life. When scarcely emerged from child- hood he took up the burdens of life without experience in worldly affairs, and with no resources save his ov/n untiring industry.
