Actually, he did like something: his business. (63)
The problem was that while he was still a fabulously wealthy man, he had recently begun to make big mistakes.
(64)

Ellsworth was in pretty good shape for a 76-year-old, but his business failures were ruinous to his health. (65)
He had suffered his last heart attack after his disastrous purchase of a small railroad in Iowa.
(66)
The health problem he suffered be-fore that came about because of excitement over the failure of a chain of grocery stores, stores which he had purchased at an in-flated price.
It seemed that all his recent purchases had to be liquidated at a great sacrifice to both his pocketbook and his health. (67)
They were beginning to have serious effects.
(From Art for Heart’s State)
