Hard, William | February 6, 1924 issue

add to cart   close window

Edward L. Doheny, miner, prospector, finder of deposits, founder of properties, multi-millionaire, is about to testify. The large oblong room is crowded. It is Thomas J. Walsh, of Montana, United States Senator, Irish like Mr. Doheny, a Democrat like Mr. Doheny, and Mr. Doheny's friend personally but, as it soon appears, not officially and not in any manner contrary to Mr. Walsh's immediate duty. Mr. Doheny acutely observes that persons in peril may not like each other at the time, but they always like each other afterwards in their common memory of the peril and of the escape.
