on me that he did. His own people almost
worshipped him. Other places had tried to
get him away; but be remained in Portland
When DR.. Hamlin knew kim, DR.. Payson
had passed the period of his conflicts and
antagonisms; and the people of Portland
were proud of him irrespective of beliefs
AS an arm ON one side and leg on one sic q
were paralzyed, DR.. Payson could not make
gestures part of the graces OF oratory. One
of his deaoons would help him down the
aisle, and as he would ascent the pulpit
Slowly and painfully tears would spring to
the eyes of many admirers.
DR.. Hamlin saw DR.. Payson only as an IL
valid. There was nothing about his stature
TO attract attention. but Dr.. Hamlin re-
members particularly his piercing black
eyes. with kindly expression. His voice
was grave. earnest and clear. You heard
every sentence without effort. His wealth
Of illustration was feature of his preach
ing. He was great reader and student,
and had wonderful memory. There was
no inattention when he spoke. The suoieor
might be unpopular; but. the presentation
was SO entertaining that both old and
young understood and listened. His felicity
of illustration gave an attractive charm to
all that he said. :.
His formal farewell from the pulpit Was
inexpressibly tender, and melted all to
tears. One reason he gave for retiring, was
that he might husband his remaining
| strength for the Bible class. where he could
excuses an influence on those who had not
professed religion.
DR.. Hamlin described how Dr. Payson ap-
peared in this Bible class. which was always
largely attended. At that time his face ap-
peared SO strangely immobile that it seemed
sculptured. This fixed appearance was
proba bly, due to his constant self restraint
in order that be might not betray the pain
he suffered. When he began to speak his
face lightened up. however.
DR.. Payson had great knowledge of the
hearts of others, an intuitive knowledge, it
would seem. OF the three hundred young
persons before him he would seem to know
and be interested in each; and he un-
doubtedly felt that he was personally re-
sponsible for tho salvation of each at the
bar of judgment.
Il one of his class should absent himself
he would at once notice it. and would kind
ly communicate with that one. This watch
full solicitude was even more effective than
any eloquence, even.
Dr.: Payson's ruling passion was strong in
death. When he was dying he requested
that after death there should be pinned to
his breast paper bearing these words:
Remember the words that 1 spake unto
you while was yet with you"
Dr.. Hamlin was in the long procession
that fled by the casket. He read the in
scription. and gave the features Of the
departed long, last look. 1t seemed that
there rested on the still features light of
triumph.
At tine conclusion Of DR.. Hamlin's paper,
DR.. Dalton spoke of the long and dis tin
guished career of DIR. Hamlin as a mission
airy in Turkey, and President Of Rober
