5522. MORALITY, Code of.—[continued].

I never did, or countenanced,
in public life, a single act inconsistent
with the strictest good faith; having never believed
there was one code of morality for a
public, and another for a private man.—
To Don Valentine de Feronda. Washington ed. v, 475. Ford ed., ix, 260.
