His skill in making money is proved by his success, His mind is strong and fertile, though defective in intellectual discipline; and if he had more heart and more imagination, he would be a great man. But his aspirations and his character are op- pressed by the love of wealth. He bas not yet shown that he ean cut loose from the pas- sion for getting moncy and bea free man in the fall sense of the word.
