Страница 166 - ... at liberty to do it ; for let me not be understood as capable of patronizing infidelity to, existing engagements. I hold the maxim no less applicable to public than to private affairs, that honesty is always the best policy. I repeat it, therefore, let those engagements be observed in their genuine sense.
