Críticas:

"I am sure that the spirit of friendship and comradeship was stronger in those days than it is now. Commercialism had not taken hold of the bar as it now has, and the lawyer who at the time manifested as his principal aim in life the making of money was regarded as lowering the standards of the profession, and was not received into full social communion by the guild."--Henry M. Lewis (1830-1915) I am sure that the spirit of friendship and comradeship was stronger in those days than it is now.
