RABBI MEssING's WORDS.


Lost His Life.
Rabbi NJ. Messing. of the Indianapolis
Hebrew Congregation, was inexpressibly
shocked at the deplorable and untimely
death of Mr.. Morris. 'It is a terrible
calamity that has come upon u.s. he said
last night. speaking with deep feeling. II
have known Nathan from his boyhood,
might say, from the time he moved here
with his parents in 1870. 1 have always
known him to be honest, true and faithful,
and 1 have found him to be the most char
liable of all the men I have known in this
city. There was not charity in Indianap-
oils to which he did not give generously
and gladly, even out of proportion to his
means.
Mr.. Morris was a faithful member of
the Synagogue, and was one of the most
liberal contributors towards its mainte-
nance. He was good Jew in every sense
He recognized one God and one humanity"
Ralph Bamberger, who was closely asso-
ciated with Mr.. Morris for several years,
said OF him last evening: II began my first
study of law In Mr.. Morris's Office, and
have known him intimately since / was a
boy. He was a man to whom youth always
appealed. 1 believe it no exaggeration to
say that more young lawyers are under
obligations to him than to any other six
lawyers In the city of Indianapolis. He was
leagues. His was large heart and a noble,
generous soul. His death is not only a
loss to his friends, but loss to the pro-
fession and to the community. 1t will be
many years before Nathan Morriss equal
will be known in Indianapolis"

RILEY KNEW HIM WELL.
High Tribute to the Worth of Nathan
Morris Paid by Him.

James whitcomb Riley, who knew
Nathan Morris for many years, was
shocked inexpressibly by the news of the
tragedy. He said last night:
Mr.. Morris to my mind was almost an
ideal man. Through Mr.. Ovid jameson L
became acquainted with him some years
ago, and after that time 1 was on terms
OF friendship with him. He had to a re-
markable degree the capabilities of a sue
cessful business man. Keen, alert. quick
to think and TO act, sure of himself he
nodded men and affairs. These qualities,
however, as l know well, were not the
best of Mr.. Morris. His generosity and his
charitableness impressed me as his most
characteristic traits. He was generous to
a fault. 1 personally know of many, many
cases of want and suffering that this kind
ly man ministered to- L think that ii
would be impossible to say too much of
him. He was one of those men that the
world needs more of. Indianapolis will
feel his loss as a city, and how many men
will miss him personally they themselves
only know"

DEEPLY SHOCKED.
Ovid b. Jameson Was One Of Nathan
Morrfs's Warm Admirers.

Ovid B. Jameson. who was one of the
most intimate friends OF Mr.. Morris, pays
the following tribute to his memory: 1.-The
memory of Nathan Morris cannot be other
than a priceless possession to those who
loved him, even in their sorrow There
is tenderness in the mention of his name
by all classes. which only life filed with
a tender respect for the rights and feelings
Of others could have won.
There is a warmth of expression which
shows how he had grappled his friends to
him by bonds of steel. He won the love
and respect which Is only obtained by
life of probity and courage. He delivered
his message of kindness, thou shtfulness of
others and forgetfulness of self. Nathan
Morris's is name to stand for generosity;
having conquered he was full of pity for
those who fell by the way. No cry for
help was too feeble to be heard by him
whether the call came from the lips of a
beggar, from charity, from church or from
friend. The passing of Nathan Morris was
like his life-he died in saving others.
He was my friend. / am yet Mortified
and almost dazed by the manner and sud-
denness of his departure. He was a rare
man. There are few such. His was truly
a noble SOUL"

A Stanch Chicago Friend.

Jacob Newman, of the firm Of Chicago
lawyers known as Newman, Northup e.
Levison. received a telephone message
yesterday morning that filled him with sad
ness. He was one Of Nathan Morris's
closest friends. He hurried TO Indianapolis
as fast as train could bring him and will
remain here until after the funeral of Mr.
Morris. They were boys together and after
they became men they kept up the COM
panionship. HE was one of the noblest
fellows 1 ever met in all my life." said Mr.
Newman last night in speaking of the
personality of Nathan Morris. He was
absolutely unselfsh He was an ideal
lawyer. an ideal citizen and an ideal friend
Loyalty, absolute loyalty was the over
whelming trait OF his character He had
host of friends in Chicago among the
hest peOple."
