Long Paraphrase of Amor de Cosmos and Local Furniture Ad
The article recounts Amor de Cosmos, born William Smith, a British Columbia politician declared lunatic at ninety and placed in trustees’ hands after a long, vainglorious career in provincial and dominion politics. It references a famous forty to twenty-hour speech and a misremembered time on a parliamentary bench, then shifts to a Honolulu furniture dealer, Ordway & Porter, advertising a stock of modern bedroom sets and other furnishings at low prices.
