resorting to falsehood, what could be said against
Frank Pierce 7 At first he Was charged With being
a drunkard—but that soon fell into the , kennel of
loathsome and forgotten calumnies. Then he was
tharged with,intoletance to his Catholic fellow cite'

pronounced the statement false. Then came the

all be true, of course, for it is " certified ' by a cies:
