From HACF's journal, Feb. 9, 1963:
"Ach, if it weren't for small blessings like splendid English shoes and magnificent suitings and good clean-cut clothes, I think I'd die. That's my only unalloyed satisfaction--a nice splendid pair of well-cared for English shoes! The most excellent product of its kind, the summation of generations of carefully preserved skills handed down in almost direct line silnce the days of Greek civilization--the culmination of the shoemaker's craft. That is something to walk in--like the winged shoes of mercury. But why did they always give me bunions until the last pair?"
