Lafayette In New England In 1825 – Royalton VT June 28

“Of all the pictures that hang on memory’s walls none is more vivid to me today than the scene of Lafayette’s visit to my native village.  I stood holding my mother’s hand, in the front door of my old homestead, and saw a carriage drawn by six white horses with a venerable gentleman bowing right and left to the crowd.”

Over and over again courts have said that there is nothing sinister in so arranging one’s affairs as to keep taxes as low as possible.

To demand more in the name of morals is mere cant.
