It is our custom to remember Ulysses S. Grant on July 23, the day he died in 1885.

As Mark Twain said: “The greatest man I have ever had the privilege of knowing personally. And I have not known a man with a kinder nature or a purer character. He was called the Silent Man — the Sphynx — and he was that, in public, but not in private. There he was a fluent and able talker — with a large sense of humor, and a most rare gift of compacting meaty things into phrases of stunning felicity.”

Let’s all take a moment.

And don’t you just love stories like this?

Have a good day! The heat has broken here–enjoy!
