Chapter of the D. R.?s of Vineland, New Jersey, an invitation to speak upon this subject before that body. Without doubt a very real interest was awakened among my hearers and as a result of such encouragement I confided to Miss Fitch my entire ma.n.u.script, which I had not read myself in ten years, and with her I continued, during the winter that followed, to live over again the joys of my first discovery of America?s ?Friend.? When the French Commission arrived in the United States in April, 1917, public interest began rapidly to center in France.

Chapter XI.) It may be said that the very persistence of his reclamations in this regard was responsible for the indifference with which they were universally received. A man so rich, so happy, so prosperous, so gay, so universally successful in all his undertakings, could not expect to be taken seriously when he loudly decried the universal ingrat.i.tude of mankind, even though his accusations might be just. What Beaumarchais essentially lacked, as La Harpe has pointed out, was above everything else, _measure_ and _good taste_.
