Gardiner, are patience, restraint, and scrupulous regard for the truth.
Indeed, it is not an uncommon experience for the historian to have to be content, (as the late Sir Leslie Stephen has so well put it,) "to toil for hours with the single result of having to hold his tongue."^ It is certainly better to discover definitely that there is no evidence, than to assume the existence of evidence and to be obliged to retreat from this assumption, later.
The result reached in Mr. Gardiner's^ case, be...sides being one which accords with the judicial view of historical method, accords with much of the experience which awaits any man who undertakes to carry the judicial temper into every-day life.
