ABSTRACT
Woodrow Wilson lived four years and four months after his collapse of September 1919. But we can draw no conclusions as to his character before his collapse from his behavior after it, since it is impossible to say how much the physical disorder in his brain affected his psychic life. His behavior in any given instance may have been produced by this organic affection rather than by psychic causes. Wilson who lived on was a pathetic invalid, a querulous old man full of rage and tears, hatred and self-pity. He was so ill that he was allowed to receive only such information as his wife thought would be good for him. This fact increases our reluctance to draw any conclusions from his behavior after his collapse. His behavior in any given instance may have been produced by misinformation or lack of information.
