>>One thing most may not be aware of. Rockefeller had retired when the Standard trust suit was brought. But his name was so associated with Standard that he couldn't stay away. <<

Isn't it true that the family was still running the enterprise? And given that he was the family leader, does retirment really mean that he was no longer responsible? Isn't it more likely that he was making a smart move, getting away from the spotlight, while leaving the family in control of events?
