During all these years and changes
have had within and without the COL
lcge many noble friends and supporters,
who have frightened my pathway with
their kindly smile and cheered my heart
with their sympathetic word. Some have
gone elsewhere and some are here still
/ cannot mention all but / must name
him, the noblest Roman of them all'
the grand old man and gentleman, DR..
Upper, for so many years the true and
trusted president of the Board of Trus-
tees. am confident no college president
ever had in the president of his Board a
truer and better friend. [ never entered
the rooms of the Foreign Mission Board
and I was often there, sometimes I fear
ed too often. but that he would at once
lay down his busy pen and greet me with
a cordial smile. could see that the
smile came from his pure. and gentle
heart and was ready and willing to talk
about the interest Of the college. This
college can never honor too much the
man who served it SO faithfully and long
and all for love and nothing for re-
ward
