Y. hn l, n ACKNOWLEDGMENTS For many manuscripts and most of the illustrations, to Mrs. Alice Hay Wadsworth, Mrs. Helen Hay Whitney, and to Mr. Clarence L. Hay but most of all for their fine tolerance which left the author under no obligation except to discover and interpret as best he could. This is in no sense a family biography, but it is a pleasure to know that the publication will not make unhappy those who best knew and most loved the subject. To certain princes in the house of scholarship, for gifts of counsel, erudition, and criticism J. Franklin Jameson, Charles A. Beard, M. A. DeWolfe Howe, and Allan Nevins. To former colleagues in the Department of State whose pleasure it would have been to do as much for any other student, but whose assistance in this book is but one other of many happy memories Hunter Miller, Edward Cyril Wynne, and Mrs. Natalia Summers. To the blessed librarians Miss L. A. Eastman, Miss Ruth Savord, H. L. Koopman, William A. Slade, Curtis W. Garrison, and Miss Martha L. Gericke and especially to that great democratic institution of letters, the Library of Congress.

Wadsworth, Jr., and B. S. Warner. To Raymond Dennett, who has thus been deprived of other interesting diversions to assist in proof-reading and checking. The list of the published writings of John Hay, perhaps not definitive but sufficiently complete to exhibit the development of his literary genius, published as Appendix I, is the contribution of William E. Louttit, Jr. It is due the reader to make one further acknowledgment. The following pages are not all biography a little history crowded in. No one will be offended if the less historically minded reader skips the history. After all, man is more interesting, and instructive, than men.
