"...When
I knew that my crop was irrevocably gone I experienced a deathly feeling
which, I hope, can affect a man only once in a lifetime. My dreams and
ambitions had been flouted by nature, and my shattered ideals seemed gone
forever. The very desire to make a success of my life was gone; the spirit
and urge to strive were dead within me. Fate had dealt me a cruel blow
above which I felt utterly unable to rise."
