Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Report of the Trial of the Libel Suit of Dr. G. S. Howard, of Carleton Place, Ont., Against the "Montreal Star" Reprint From the "Star," 1898
Q. In the spring of 1891, Howard came to St. Louis and there was introduced to you. How did the introduction come about? A. It came about in this way; Celsus Price was the son of the famous rebel general in Missouri; he was a man that was very popular in that State, his father being a very prominent man, and he being a colonel in the army, and having been offered the governorship of the State; he stood very high. Howard had wasted all their money, and in order to raise more money Howard wrote a lecture, which was called The brahmin-indian Philosophy. He wrote that lec ture and sent Price out to St. Louis. Price came to St. Louis one day without a moment's notice? And stopped at a hotel, and announced himself to the newspaper men that he had come from India and that he was going to lecture on the brahmin-indian Philosophy. This lecture proved to be a failure. There were two attempts made to deliver that lecture, and each attempt proved an empty house. Then Howard came from Montreal to St. Louis; that was in the spring of 1891.
