Governor Braddock.
Well, Egerton,
This is the grandest thing I ever saw.
Egerton.
I made my mind up, Braddock, years ago
That when I'd sawed my fortune out of lumber
I'd build a mansion where a man could see
Just how I'd done it, starting with the raw,
The standing timber, every phase of it;
A sort of record of these busy times:
For they won't last forever, these great days.
General Chadbourne.
We never see the giants till they're gone.
Bishop Hardbrooke.
The day will come when we'll appreciate them.
Ralph Ardsley.
Three cheers for one of them.
