Had the decision been against the government,' something serious wcfald doubtless have .happened, like bankruptcy of the railroads, etc. In brief, what was the intent of the decision? Just this--(Jiat a gold clause , ta a {business agreement "deprives coii- ' rrees of its Constitutional rights.to regulate the value1 of money." The government on the o(her hand, which Itself placed the gold clause in federal bonds, ••iust regard them as valid. The para 'mount question before the court was Whether congress had the power to alter the established value of the dollar. Whether the action of congress had , l»een wise-or for the best was not tinquestion. It was wholly a question of' right or power. If congress should «• i . wise its power in devaluating the dol ; lar to the point of making any scrap ^of papeir|legal tender, the results would undoubtedly be worse than serious. So | ar no o:<e has suffered because of the j inflated dollar ; not even the person ' nlio carried the suit to the Supreme ' oort.

Bushnell in Chicago, on September 15, 1806. Yellowed clippings still tell about it. Of these sextuplets, three are still living. All reached maturity. Above is Mrs. Allnca F. M. Parker, one of the living ones. She lives at Silver Lake, N. Y. Her husband died two years ago and she now lives alone, working daily iat the Perry Knitting mill there. " Her mother was born in France, but came to the United States at an early age. She married at thirteen and was the mother of 17 children including the sextuplets. At their birth she did not lose consciousness, and laughingly recalled later how Doctor Edwards said, "My God; how many more?" when he laid out the six little mites.
