Vice-President Marshall probably suffers more than any other public
official of the United States. If it isn’t suffering to listen to all tho
speeches made in the United States, and to preside over that body for
nearly a year continuously while it tediously discusses dry and uninterest

President of the Senate is bearing Up well under his burden, and maintains
the even good nature for which he is famous.
