JAMES W. PAIGE

Paige and I always meet on effusively affectionate terms, and yet he knows perfectly well that if I had him in a steel trap I would shut out all human succor and watch that trap till he died. - Mark Twain's Autobiography

What a talker he is. He could persuade a fish to come out and take a walk with him. When he is present I always believe him--I cannot help it. When he is gone away all the belief evaporates. He is amost daring and majestic liar.
- Mark Twain's Notebook
