| | "As St. Laurent hated to waste time," noted another Privy Council clerk, John Whitney Pickersgill*, "cabinet meetings were exceedingly business-like." Another wrote admiringly that he "handled his colleagues to a consensus with sure judgment." Some ministers received preferential treatment, though in meetings all were accorded equal consideration. | | | Though in manner he was a shy, rather stiff corporate lawyer (his secretary and later biographer, D. Thomson, wrote of his resistance to "light conversation and exchanges of humour"), he still had a kindly, grandfatherly appearance enhanced by his immaculate attire and white moustache. | | | Attendance was an expensive proposition for the son of a country storekeeper, but Louis was buoyed by Compton's abbé, Joseph-Eugène-Édouard Choquette, who had persuaded the college authorities to waive the customary tuition fees. |
