 Born March 22 1S41.

 "As the hart panteth after the water brooks. so panteth my soul after thee, God"
 The quotation forms the theme of the whole design, which is singularly suc- cessful in it's uniqueness and it's origin ality. A fine perspective of sunlit hills and limpid skyline deepens and closes into the radiance of warm light filtered through autumn foliage about stream that falls refreshingly from rock to rock. Strength and the darker note. graceful in contrast, are supplied by the trunks of over-arching trees in the foreground, as the stream widens, and half hidden in the thick growth on the left is the hart of the Psalmist's graphic imagery.
 Even the figure subjects of that time, though admirable in conception, were yet bound by the limitations of their methods and materials. In the space occupied by this window some four or five thousand separate pieces of richly colored glass have been required to give the landscape effect.
 Rev. Dr. Newman Smyth feelingly re- ferred to this new memorial window for Center church at the services yesterday forenoon as follows:
 The window in memory of Mr. E. Hayes Trowbridge, which is presented l to his church and ours this Easter morning, brings a new element of truth and beauty into harmony of our re- 1 ligious symbolism. Our historical win dow, which was MT. Trowbridge's gift in memory of his father. keeps ever be- fore us our great heritage from the past Other windows remind us of the nativity, of the water of life, of the once visible presence and the abiding place of the Lord. Another window wit nesses Gods guidance to it's haven of His church; still others may help us to conceive of the angels of life and joy, and of the home above whither little child may lead US.
 This woodland window, richly i wrought from the natural symbolism of the psalms, may help us think of the inner life, and the thirst of the soul for the living God. Thus it finds it's fair i and fitting place in the religious teach 4 ing of this church. As a memorial also it is altogether worthy in the church For while men in their daily business contacts may come to understand one another well, it is sometimes a pastors privilege to know men most truly il their inner life. So moro than once fl recent years MT Trowbridge had dis closed to me his deepening sense O responsibility and stewardship, his in
 ward tenderness and sympathy, as wei
 as his increased desire and purpose t,
 do what he wisely could for the city : which he felt it's more prosperous cit
 izens should enrich, and for his church which, as he said. like his home. shoul , suffer no need while he lived Witt thoughts and plans forming in his min of still more generous service and large usefulness, his life here, too suddenl , for us, was cut short This is no plac
 or time, as we appear before God, fo us to speak words of friendly apprecia [ ton of our fellow men. It is gratefu and excellent to say that this memoria : window, as we shall look many a Sab : bath day upon it's quiet loveliness, an ] read it's scriptural meaning, may lea our eyes away from all outward work : and earthly accomplishment. and leav us thinking of the inner life. .'As tn !, hart panteth after the water brooks, s panteth my soul after Thee, 0 God"
