One of the most intelligent men I ever knew. one of the most accomplished and kindly men. a man who could earn his living anywhere. for 11 months in the year was as sane as anybody. but the other 30 days in the year be was the handiest and most accurate person with a butcher knife at a jugular vein that there was extant. and such a man could pass the immigration authorities under the terms of this bill. That man could earn a living. but he was an expensive proposition and dangerous withal. He was not suffering from anypsychopathic constitutional inferiority. He was born as good as the next man. and with real blue blood in his veins. but at certain periods a form of circular insanity seized him and he was an interesting neighbor.
