Stormer

Did you ever hear of Coronado, the conqueror of New Mexico, the stormer of the seven cities of Cibola?

That is a contrary definition, which is laid down in opposition to the actions which those who are the hearers of the speech have done; as if any one were to be speaking before Alexander the Great against some stormer of a city, and were to say that nothing was more inhuman than to destroy cities, when Alexander himself had destroyed Thebes.

Hochberg has a reputation as a stormer, and he'd already been hounding the Chicago papers to print happier news about his company.
