Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Havelock There are two occasions on which a man, reserved by nature and training, is apt to disclose himself without restraint; in confidential communication with his closest and most trusted friend; and on his deathbed face to face with eternity. Henry Havelock´s dearest friend was George Broad-foot; to whom he thus wrote, as the outcome of the experience of half a century: "In public affairs, as in matters eternal, the path of popularity is the broad way, and that of duty the strait gate, and ´few there be that enter thereby.´ Principles alone are worth living for or striving for; and of all the animals, the most ill-judging, ungrateful, and opposed to their own true interests, are men, that is mankind." "When he was near his end, lying in the dhooly under the trees of the Dilkoosha, there came to take farewell of him his valiant and loyal comrade Outram: to whom the dying man´s composed assurance was, "I have for forty years so ruled my life that when death came I might face it without fear."
