Mr. Conkling has wonderful faith in the members of his profession. A friend asked him a few days ago if he did not think that a certain well-known lawyer had sold out his client to the other side. "No, sir," said Mr. Conkling, solemnly,
I have never looked upon the face of the lawyer who I believed would sell out his client. It is, in my opinion, the rarest crime on earth, the very minimum instance of depravity. If the case were otherwise it would, to quote an old judge I once admired, rob humanity of the last virtue that clings to degradation itself.
