Dear Justus Fabius'There is a question that you often put to me. How is it that, whereas former ages were so prolific of great orators, men of genius and renown, on our generation a signal blight has fallen: it lacks distinction in eloquence, and scarce retains so much as the name of orator, which we apply exclusively to the men of olden time, calling good speakers of the present day pleaders, advocates, counsel'anything rather than orators.
