fo1. il was ia the family circle that VIII
Nuzum's worth was best known; there
that his nobility shone the brightest 1t
was the privilege Of the writer TO know
him in MS home and those of US who knew
him there realize the bereavement that his
death is TO his family. He was the most
tender of fathers, being always a compan-

wear ago, he was called to part
with his son George, an in
teresting boy of seven years. his
heart was sorely grieyed, yet his sorrow
was not morbid, for even then his thought

his uuselishness, which was strong point

Jealous life; patient life He so lived
that when the dark messenger came it
found him ready, and so calm and peaceful
was the end that it was but falling
asleep, Like one who wraps the drapery
of his couch about hun and lies down 10
pleasant dreams"
