My dear MT. Perry:
 wish that might send to you and to the people of St. Paul's some mes sage concerning the death of Rev. MT. Camp, which adequately expressed my. feeling. News of his death came to me at the very end of the old year with shock, giving me the greatest sorrow. I had no thought of him as less than 1 entirely well and strong.
 He was associated with us for three years in St. Paul's church and never was man more faithful, more interest," ed in his work more anxious to ren- der service to the full measure of his strength and opportunity. The Sunday school grew largely under his unweafy visiting and interest in the children He | always felt that whatever he under took would be done if it was in the power of any one to do it. He was q man who always carried larger share 1 of the burden of the work than belong ed to him, and always without com plaint and with greatest patience. He was wise and thoughtful and kind and had the respect of every one who i knew him. His death means d great loss to his friends and to the church. After going from us at All Saints and at Westville, he was the same 1 faithful and devoted man that he was with us It wasuthe testimony of q member Of a parish which had not been united and prosperous, in which he labored, that he always found what i was good in the people and drew 1t out. This was what he did everywhere. He 1 found good in all with whom he had
 to do. He made for himself in Min nesota a place of large influence and he will be greatly missed.
 For long time with his duties of instruction in the divinity school at Y dIibdulL uS, luOh GldtSC Ul sd JdilsH | in St. Paul, and really did the work of 1 two men. He was active in the Sunday school work and always ready to do | more than his share. He shall be re-
 membered by allsof us who belong at ! St. Paul's, with affection, for he loved
 the parish and the people, and worked
 hard for them. He kept a personal in terest in St. Paul's to the end of his 1 life. F% .at. l&'t, " Few men are better prepared than
 MT Camp to pass on into the other
 world, with assurance of the Masters
 "Well done, thou good and faithful
 servant" but with he mos sincere re
 gret, every one who knew him must
 think of his life here, as ended. His
 memory is blessed and his work re-
 mains. Edwin S. Lines. As soon as Rev. MT. Perry finished
 the reading of Bishop Lines letter the
 entire congregation knelt while MT.
 Perry lead them in most beautiful
 prayer which he had prepared especial | for the occasion.
 This part Of the service was cori- ducted with a great deal of solemnity
 and feeling on the part of all present,
 and the effect was most impressive.
