...conversation at its best would never be selected as a model of grammatical purity or refined elegance. The name of every by-way in his neighborhood is to him a household word; but he is a comparative stranger to the highways, and when seen there, is usually observed to appear ill at ease...

Whether reasons should be annexed is a matter for the Faculty to decide, but we honestly believe that by giving reasons, they would, without compromise of dignity, protect themselves against...
