1190. CHARACTER, Evidence of.—
The
uniform tenor of a man's life furnishes better
evidence of what he has said or done on any
particular occasion than the word of any
enemy, and of an enemy, too, who shows that
he prefers the use of falsehoods which suit
him to truths which do not.—
To De Witt Clinton. Washington ed. iv, 520.
