prominent men. After leaving Miami Mr. Nor
rison studied for the ministry at Princeton and
after finishing his theological studies, chose the
West as his field. He was noted a man
whose talents were used to free churches from
debt and he unsa lfshly neglected himself.
Several years ago DR.. Morrison bought little
homestead near Fulton, Mo, but never lived 10
clear 1t of debt The house is old fashioned,
with large rooms and plenty of outbuhdlngs.
The place is beautiful. l bought 1t for my

ton. it took only few minutes to raise over
$1,000 more than enough to pay the debt 1t
was an entirely unprecedented action on the
part of the fraternity.
