Iere in Colorado no one doubts that the

MYRON REEDS FUNERAL

A Catholic priest, a Jewish rabbi, a
Methodist and Christian clergyman,
and a politician and editor, all on one
platform and all for the glory of Goo
and the praise Of Myron Reed. liberal
preacher, philanthroplst, Publlclst and
statesman. Thousands came and went
Thousands passed the bier of the great
preacher as be lay in state in the theatre
where SUNDAYS he delivered his mes
sages of truth, or of Myron, Reeds
ideas of truth. Other thousands could
not gain access to the theatre, every
inch of the available space of which, in
cluding isles and lobby, was occupied
by some specimen of the humanity that
was all the same to him they honored
and mourned. 1t was a touching scene
to see rich and poor, black and white,
reverently pass the casket containing all
that was mortal of the distinguished
preacher. For Myron Reed pauperlzed
himself in benevolences never ending.
More than this, as Rabbi Friedman
truthfully said he died a martyr to his
conception of right. Had he curbed his
tongue, fashionable congregations would
have always hung upon the words OF
this wizard of epigrams. The scene was
inspiring IN its exhibition of tolerance.
Myron Reed discarded all creeds but
tolerated them all and his funeral was
most flt. A generation ago.such blend
ing of diverse theology would have been
Impossible. "The fatherhood of God
and brotherhood of man," the text which
Reed preached so often and lived so
long, helped to render this assemblage
OF dlSSimlidr elements possible. 1ha'
funeral marks an epoch IN the era OF
good feeling that has dawned. 1t was a
great thing for Denver and Colorado >
The eulogies by Father Organ, Rabbi
Friedman and Thomas M. Patterson. as
well as the prayer by Chancellor Mellow
ell, were excellent specimens of class
that Myron Reed would have loved to
hear had the subject been another and
equally worthy personality. Reed had
his faults but they were trlfes compared
with the immeasureable good of his
gracious deeds, his splendid heroism
and his immortal epigrams.
