my knowledge of his character and my
admiration of his many virtues. After
all, why should not one friend say a few
words about another who Is gone? Why
should he not weave garland of affec-
tion and place it upon his friends casket!
And why should he not scatter flowers
lipon his grave and shed tears of regret
and sorrow?
Everyone in my presence can well say:

true as to the last five years. He gave
me his confidence and / participated in
his joys and sorrows. am therefore
glad of the opportunity to speak Of him
AS I found him and to tell you what
manner of man my friend was.
l know you will agree with me when I
say that our' friend was a great lover of
nature. He enjoyed the gladness of
spring and the glory of summer. He was
fond of flowers and trees and the things
evidences of this around us. The vines
and the trees in front of his own home,
as we'll as in front of mine, were his
gifts and We're planted by him. He
watched their growth carefully and low
ingly and tended them with willing
hands. About three weeks before he died
he said to me: "When am gone. if
leave nothing else to be remembered by,
these trees in front of our homes will
be my monuments
| may say also of our friend that he
was a sturdy stalwart man. Were it not
for the accidents he met in the later per-
iod of his life, he would probably have
lived ten years longer. He was cast in
