was an Ideal Man.
For forty years he has been conspicu-
Gus on the streets of Salt Lake both IN
appearance and by his life. Life ser
mons are greater IMAM eloquence. L nave
tried to picture an ideal man, rational
man leading such life as his reason APP
proves This is what distinguishes the
civilized man from the barbarlan-leaulIS
a life satisfactory to the reason nave
met few men who came so near my IDEAL
man as the deceased. If he were on the
streets of Athens when DiogeneS Went
about in broad daylight with his lantern
| in search of an honest man, Mr.. Marshall
would have been discovered towering,
physically, mentally and morally, above
| all others. Diogenes would nave seen IN

noble and erect and as noble and straight
| in his dealings with his fellow man.
Tells of Case Refused.
81 remember one time when was
asked to request Mr.. Marshall to take a
case to which some scandal was attached.
| will You take it Mr.. Marshall? | asked.
4 will not he said decisively. l explained
to him that his client had plenty OF money
ana would pay well for legal assistance
/ Mr. Marshall answered that he would not
take it if there were thousands oil dollars
III it for him. Fl,
never begin to take them, he answered

the deceased obcyed the dictates OF ms
reason. Money was no attraction to him
in anything contrary to his ideas of no.
MIR. Marshall was great in mind ant
simple in life. / remember when the Or

: Third East streets. 1t was usual thing
for him to invite the children frequently
4 fo a fruit feast He would leave his of
flee to mingle with the children, and fol
n few hours was a child himself. He de-
lighted in amusing them and knew now
TO make them happy. He knew that hap
piness is found in making others happy
Man derives happiness from the happines:
he creates for those around him.
Loss is Widely Felt.
His was an ideal home; his. a happ,

The evenings He told me he believed ;
n7an's place was with his family-he sait
it was his faith and mis- practice
MIR. Marshall has left us and in doint

long time before his place among us vii
: be filled physically or mentally. Whit
the loss is greatest to his family, his i
l common loss to us all. He was grea
