Not illustrated. 1883. Excerpt: ... Mr. Wallis? Are you sick this morning?" No, he said, he was not sick, but he said that he had been sitting up until three o'clock the night before, writing or working. I asked him what he had been doing, and he said he had been getting resolutions ready asking for an appropriation, I think--at any rate it was a paper asking for an appropriation from the Legislature for the State Library. I said "Yes?" He said " Yes; " and he said he could not get time to do it in the daytime. The day before I had seen Mr. Gunn at work at that paper, and I knew that Mr. Gunn had drawn it up, and I heard Mr. Wallis say the afternoon before that the paper was all right. I had seen the paper on Mr. Gunn's desk in his own handwriting, and I knew that he wrote it. I think it but justice to state right here that although that is my opinion, Mr. Chairman, I do not think "untruthful" expresses my idea of Mr. Wallis' mental incapacity to speak the truth--simply covers it. He is not conscious of falsifying half as much as he does. He forgets from one minute to another what he says, and in that way he is totally unreliable. Q. Did that condition of Mr. Wallis' mind influence you any as an assistant in the library, and if so, to what extent? A. I did not pay any attention to what he said after I had been there a few days, unless it was something that struck me as funny. Q. Why did you not? A. Because I found that you would hear altogether too much that did not amount to anything, and that I could not credit it; I did not believe it at the time that he said it. Q. What, if anything, did he ever state to you about l-s influence or control over the Trustees, that they had to retain him in that position? Mr. Johnson objected, as irrelevant, immaterial, not bearing on any of the issue...We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
