⚠️ Historical Documentation Notice
This document is part of a historical archive and is presented for scholarly research and educational purposes.
The content reflects historical perspectives and should be understood within its historical context.
THIS IS a common error of libellers. Because they are quoting from a printed source — a newspaper, even the
National Review — they think they are safe from lawsuits.
They are not. A duty bears upon them to verify the statements they intend to quote. “I found it in a newspaper” is no defence whatever to a charge of defamation.
