Penchant for Plain Life of Rich Orator Ingersoll
New York report details Colonel Robert G Ingersoll’s vast yet discreet wealth and frugal living. He spends hours crafting lectures, avoids public biographical disclosure, and funds schemes while valuing simplicity despite a five story Wall Street office and homes on Fifth Avenue and near Dobbs Ferry. Colleagues note his careful word choice and verbatim publication preference. The piece also notes his view that immense wealth is a burden and his household includes wife, relatives, and grandchildren. A sideline item cites a hypothetical rail speed claim of 100 miles per hour requiring at least two miles to stop.
