I Leave The Governor's Office Next Week, And With It Public Life[which] Has Been On The Whole A Pleasant One. But For Ten Years And Over My Salaries Have Not Equalled My Expenses, And There Has Been A Feeling Of Responsibility, A Lack Of Independence, And A Necessary Neglect Of My Family And Personal Interests And Comfort, Which Make The Prospect Of A Change Comfortable To Think Of.
