no weapon but a sledgehammer.
"He was abso'ute.y fearless, and It
there ever was an independent man in
public life it was Farwell. That Is why
he was In the United States Senate

■I remember how. after he broke

'Well let me tell you the sort of a
Christian my brother is. He has got
your picture hung up on one side of
his library and Garfield's on the other

as If he had been struck In a vita part
of his body. Of course, he tried to Ig-

without saying good day. I be'leve he
