A very classy remembrance, which includes this:
This newspaper published, about two months ago, some reflections of mine on a column he had written about my legal travails. It was typical of him that he wrote me a very kind message, and, at great inconvenience to himself, journeyed 30 miles to have dinner with me twice in the following couple of weeks. Though severely bothered by emphysema, arthritis, and lesser ailments, he was still a sparkling conversationalist and a discriminating gourmand.
And an ironic fact:
He had one of the largest vocabularies of any English-speaking person in public life but, I discovered when we and our wives took a cruise together, was hopeless at Scrabble because he was unaccustomed to using words of eight letters or less.
