RABBI KOCH'S FAREWELL
SERMON IN PENSACOLA

DERIVING spiritual power in whose lap
we lay as helpless babes, and which
mOulds our destinies every hour.
Vt is with sadness and with regret
that / stand before you now, and it is,
too, with a touch of gratitude. 1t is
with regret that l have achieved so
little; it is with gratitude that have
been allowed to try. And at this mo-
ment there is an especial emotion that
sways me, for, though I knew that
this would be my last formal appear
ance among you for quite some time,
yet it did not occur to me that even
that might be denied me by one Of
the strange casualties of human life.
Again, feel that spirituality counts;
that il is moral cOurage-dt is moral
heroism-that sways the universe AMI
evokes our profoundest emotions. 1t
is not force, nor power, but the spirit
Of God, that thrills us and helps man
to realize his best self. And SO with
this gratitude and this SORROW, this
gladness, this bitter sweet, I would
praise God for this new revelation of
His Majesty-of his power-which
dwells in the least Of US, and which is
so fiamable that it requires but the
finest spark Of opportunity to fan it
into a flame.
Life, friends, is a struggle They
live most who struggle most. Those
who are content to roll down the cur
rent Of existence as the current drifts,
are not those who realize life the
most. And so, men must see that
somehow they get into the current of
existence that they may realize to the
utmost heir maximum self-expression.
And thus II is that our ambition con-
ficts with our wishes; that duty calls
one way whist love another. And
thus It is that I stand before you to-
night, going, not willingly, and yet
willingly, and because L feel I ought,
not because l must, thereby severing
a relationship which has been sweet
on the surface and deep and true be-
meath.
There is a tide in the affairs Of
men, which, taken at the food, leads
on to fortune. Omitted all the voy-
age Of life, is fraught with shadows
and with mysteries"
And so men, still in the prime of
life, must keep eyes open and see to
II that they take the current at its
flood, lest they find themselves high
and dry on the sands Of lost oppor-
tunity. Opportunity, indeed, is one of
the presiding geniuses Of the universe.
VIII achieves less than destiny, and
when once the opportunity does come,
then must we grasp 1t:
Master Of human destinies am II
Opportunity.
Fame, love and fortune on my foot
steps wait.
Cities and fields walk; I penetrate
Deserts and seas remote, and pass
ing by
Hovel and mart and palace, soon or

late
knock unbidden once at every gate;
If sleeping wake; if feasting rise be-
fore
I turn away. It is the hour of fate,
And they who follow me reach every
state
Morals desire, and conquer every foe
Save death; but those who doubt or
hesitate,
Condemned to failure, penury and
woe,
Seek me in vain and uselessly i'm
plore.
I answer not, and return no
more!"
And so we must make the best of
the opportunities that are ours, lest
they pass, to our regret, for, surely,
many of the mortals who have yield
ed love to duty, and having lost today
have pinned away tomorrow.
THE key of yesterday threw away
And now too late
Before tomorrow's close-locked gate
Helpless 1 stand in vain to pray
In vain to sorrow
Only the key of yesterday
Unlocks tomorrow"
And Sc, friends, 1 would keep the
key Of yesterday, to make life sweet
and pleasant and successful.
1t is with deep emotion that l make
this formal farewell. The days that
/ have spent beneath these southern
skies have been unspeakably pleasant.
Yet all things are not as l might have
wished them. I might have wished
for intenser activity on the part Of the
men and more self-sacrificing religi-
BUSINESS on the part Of the women;
but, for all these foibles, have never
had reason to doubt that l had your
good will and confidence, and that
your seeming Indifference and. negli-
gence was merely the child of thought
lessness and not of dissatisfaction. l
have been among you in your sorrows
and your joys, and have seen your
children head towards manhood AMI
towards womanhood; caught intima-
tions of their future careers of useful
ness.
l now go to a field that is new, to
satisfy a larger ambition, casting my
self upon untried waters, to win once
more the loyalty and the love of
Jewish community. Life is a strug-
gle. Only they achieve who dare to
cast a die and cross the Rubicon. And
so, my friends, like all of you, 81 go
to prove my soul"
l see my way as birds their trackless
way.
I shall arrive! What time, what
circuit first,
1 ask not-but unless God send his
hail,
Or binding fire balls, sleet or sitting
snow,
IN some time, his good time, l shall
arrive;
He guides me and the bird. In His
good time!
And so, friends, with this confidence
in the goodness of God, who saves one
from the abysmal waters as from the

earthquakes shock or the hurricanes
blast, l plunge into the future. There
are two points in the feat of a
diver, Festus. One, when, as a beg
gar, he plunges for the pearl; the
other, when, as prince, he rises with
the gem" And so, my friends,
plunge, and may you witness my riaa-
mot by might, nor yet by power,
but by my spirit, saith the Lord OF
Hosts"
It is with this as the keynote of my
ministry among you that l began, and
is is this that / have ever sounded. Pos
sibly at times with a monOtOnous re-
petition on the vanity Of the passing
show. That it was not dress, or wealth
Or luxury that counted, but manhood
and wOmanhood, and truth and right.
And so in our congregational life l
have endeaVored to impress this spir-
itual truth. have regretted that our
communal jealousies were so intense;
that our envies were so manifold;
that there was so much social antago-
nism as there was. But, whatever
may have been in the social life, as a
congregation you seem to be united.
This has ever been the beacon leading
us on to a grander goal. 20, why
should the spirit of mortal be proud?"
Why should they stand at daggers'
ends, when life is so brief and uncer-
tain, and so inconstant?
This gray, round world, so full Of
life,
OF hate, of love, of calm and strife,
Still, ship-like on for ages fares.
How grand it sweeps the eternal
blue!
Glide on, fair vessel, till thy crew
Discern how great loss is theirs. :"
And so may our congregational ship
sail on until our crew shall discern
the follies of envy and self1shness and
discovers how great a loss is theirs.
AS with the community, so with the
individual. have not hesitated to at
tack the foibles that existed among
us. There are things that must yet
be accomplished There are still
things that we, as men and women,
should not countenance.
Stay, what does this remembrance
set down concerning life?
Time fleets, youth fades, life is an
empty dream.
It is the scho Of time; and he, whose
heart beat first beneath a hui
man heart, whose speech
Was copied from human tongue,
can never
Recall when he was living yet knew
not this
Nevertheless long seasons pass Ger
him,
Till some one hours experience shows
what nothing
1t seemed, could clearer show; and
ever after
An altered brow and eye, and gait
and speech
Attests that now he knows the adage
Time fleets, youth fades, life is an
empty dream"
But, friends, life is an empty dream
only to those who do not use life
Alright. And so I have ever preached
that earnestness, sincerity and zeal

Following is the farewell sermon
preached by Rabbi Samuel Koch to
the Temple Bethel congregation Fri
day night Rabbi Koch leaves next
Thursday for Seattle, Washington, to
assume his new and larger charge
there:
Farewell Sermon.
Not by might, nor yet by power,
but by my spirit, saith the Lord of
Hosts."
Friends: Some four years ago 1
made my Introductory sermon with
this text. Now, as our relationship is
about TO close, once more 1 revert to,
Not by might, nor yet by power, but
by my spirit, saith the Lord Of Hosts. -
Our relationship has been a pleasant
one. Il began in a beautiful way and
is about to end in a beautiful way.
Unknown TO you, without a trial ser
mon, without a competitive elOcution-
airy test, I came among you-nOt to be
tried, but 10 lead. Your confidence
was mine before / came, and my conf
dence was yours. ] felt sanguine that
you would respond to an honest effort,
and you must have felt sanguine that
1 would rise TO a trust 50 gracefully
imposed.
And now We are to part. We can
not choose our way; We can not de-
termine our own course In life, but,
tossed hither and thither on the cur
rent OF existence, we must be con-
tent 10 drift as best We can.
And so tonight would recall this,
my first text, because I entered upon
the ministry in this community with
the conviction that only a minister Of
spiritual power could achieve some
thing; that it was the spiritual inter.
pnetatiOn Of history that made men
hopeful and gave history a value; and
that 1t was, after all, less the intel
lect and less the physique, but the
man In the pulpit, that swayed his
congregants and got their homage
and their trust And so tonight I
would re-echo this text, that all of US
might know that I still believe in the
spirituality Of history and the good
ness OF man, and that for all, the trials
Of the past four years have not been
20 bitter as to shake my confidence
IN human nature, and I still believe
as have cause 70 believe, in this un-

BUSINESS should be our rule of action
and that life then shall not be an
empty dream, but deep and meaning
full.
AS regards our attitude towards the
larger social life of our community,
liberalism, too, has been the word.
Religion for me is not sectarianism.
l honor the man who tries to practice
what he processes and breaches. And
so, all religions seem good to me if
practiced sincerely. Each is an ex-
preston of the truth, but the crystal
of truth has many facets and all are
necessary.
Truth is within ourselves; it takes
no rise
From outward things, whateer you
may believe
There is an Utmost center in us all,
Where truth abides in fullness.
And to know,
Rather consists in opening out a way
Whence the imprisoned splendor
may escape,
Than in effecting entry for a light
Supposed to be without"
And so, friends, once more bid you
farewell. I trust indeed that all of
our friendship may continue through
the coming years; may our sorrows
be few and our joys many; may the
blossoms of childhood in our homes
bloom into the sweetest flowers of
character; may the blessings of a
good Good forever surround us as does
the ocean some little island.

The boy bounded to his feet sheep

eagerness which pleased me.
Got your horse?" l asked.
He nodded, all attention now, and J
continued:
Then fling your legs up and be off

Bully he said and clamored out OF

l had already made up my mind no.
to be too explicit with Montgomery
He was too recent an acquaintance, de
spite my conviction of his fidelity, t(
intruSt with a precious secret. Indeed
the first occasion of our encounter
would not have commended him tC
many particular people. What l told
him, therefore, as we rode back EN-
braced but the general atmosphere OF
intrigue in which | was involved. The
word that stuck in his mind was bur
glary," and it greatly excited him.
"Shall we have the police Over? he
asked anxiously.
But. strangely enough, although the
thought had occurred to me more thar
once, it was almost in old Kesteven's
words that l replied:
There are none nearer than Ray
mond' To that | added, Besides, !
think we two are in no need Of assist
ance against ruffian or two"
The next two days passed very peace
ably. AS l am fond of laying my plans
ahead, | wrote to Sheppard at his
chambers asking him if he We're still
in town and if he felt disposed to pay
me a visit, referring briefly to the
strange turn which my fortunes had
taken. l saw nothing of the captain
at least at the castle, and for some
reason or other | felt no desire to re
visit him just now He had evidently
forgotten my invitation, nor did | re
mind him of it when we met casually
upon the road the day after Montgom
ery's arrival. He gave me civil
greeting, cooking his eye at my com.
panion in his good humored, cynical
way, and when we had passed, on
looking back, | saw him standing at
the crossroads, rod in hand, gazing in,
tently after us. Seeing me do so, he
waved his hand and moved off upon
his journey. Montgomery was as doc
lie as a spaniel, submitting readily, |
suppose, to the superior will, and l
had no complaint to make of him save
that he wearied me good deal. He
himself, however, had complaint,
for he was grievously disappointed
that there had been no bloodshed. We
saw not a show of a burglar, and /
fancy he thought me in his private
mind something of an impostor, which
possibly was the very reason which
made him strike up an acquaintance
with Sercombe. | certainly had no
right to protest, for the captain was a
pleasant fellow and so far as | knew
harmless, and, moreover, life at the cas-
tie was not enlivening. But all the
same | was Il little annoyed to find
them upon such close terms with one
another.
The third day after Montgomery
arrival | resolved to ride into Ray
