www.facebook.com/john316marshallWhile on vacation, I read a book about the remarkable final year of General Grant. Having been scammed of all his money, he set himself to the task of writing his memoirs while battling throat cancer.
The race was on, Grant's last battle was engaged, and as usual, Grant won. He finished his autobiography three days before he died. Its publication made his wife very wealthy.
This would have pleased Grant. His biographer said he was uxorious. That was a new word to me. I looked it up. It means having a highly developed love for your wife. Amen. I hope Ruth thinks I am uxorious.
