From the Evening Sentinel, Volume 4, Number 286, 5 May 1900:
A Binghampton high school pupil was taking a history examination which contained a question on Nero. For the moment he could not remember who the gentleman was, so he wrote this:
“The less said about Nero the better.”
His paper was marked one hundred.
Future history students, make note of this. The same will be true of Donald Trump.
