more encouraging than | have ever
known them to be. and my memory OF
service goes back twenty-eight years

tho results fall short of what they

greet reason to thank God for His
manifold mercies. for the increasing
good will and good understanding OF
one another by all christian people In
this state. and for the real growth In
the great majority Of our parishes In
sniritual earnestness and missionary
interest.
Not yet have we done our duty TO-
ward missions at home or abroad. We
must go to another General Conven-
ton with our apportionment not quite
paid up. And for our diocesan work
we have still far too few men In the
field, largely because our mission fund
is not adequate to pay them. We can
not wonder that missions are con-
stantly becoming vacant when the
stipends are so small.
But when all this is said we must
rejoice to know that conditions are
vastly improved over what they were

Shanghai, China and the 11Sth Bishop
in the American Succession, died
October Is, 1906. Bishop Shereschew
sky was a pioneer Missionary Bishop
of sanity life and vast learning. He
translated the Bible into the Mandarin
dialect and did an immortal work for
the cause of Christianity. He was
Obliged to resign the active duties OF
the Episcopate by reason of illhealth
in 1884, but his interest in the work
of the Chinese mission and his liter
airy labors were continued till the end
"The Right Rev. Isaac Lea 'Nichol'
son, D. D., 5th Bishop of the Milwau-
kee. and 159th of the American Success
sion. died October 10th, 1906. Bishop
Nicholson was a man of splendid pres
ence and fine executive ability. He
suffered intensely during the latter
years of his life and his heroic forti-
tude and patient faith were lesson
and a blessing to the whole church.

For more than twenty-eight years
Bishop Seymour was power in the

abroad. | had the privilege OF MS
intimate friendship and he preached

| am glad to reckon myself among
those hundreds of clergymen who
were students under him at
the General Theological Seminary,
upon whom his personality left its
impression never to be effaced. He
being dead, yet speaketh; his works
do follow him."
There is one other, not a bishop
whose death is a serious loss to the
church, whose life and service we are
clad to commemorate. The Rev. John
Fulton. D. D., Editor of the Church
Standard, Philadelphia. DR.. Fulton
was born in Scotland, but took orders
in this country, and spent the earliest
wears of his ministry in the south.
He was the greatest editorial writer
the Episcopal church in America has
ever had, with the possible exception
of Bishop Hugh Miller thompson
DR.. Fulton's language was the lucid,
terse and vigorous English His prose
STYLE had the distinction of a classic,
and his legal and theological learning
have given his utterances attractive
value and Importance.
For these and all Others, His serV-
ants. who have departed this life IN
the true faith of His Holy Name, let
us give thanks to God and pray that
we with them may have our perfect
consummation and bliss both in body
and soul in His eternal and everlasting
