ants. True, the lapse of years has
gathered long since many into Heaven
whom his priestly hands guided thither;
yet there are still lingering on earth
many who mourn his loss, and bless his
memory, especially in Southern Mary
land, where l was intimately associat-
ed with him in days agone. l know
whereof l speak when refer to hearts
grieving for him there-not only among
the educated and refined, but among all
classes, particularly among the colored
portion of his one time flock, to whom
his helpful and sympathetic hand ever
went out in pastoral solicitude. They
knew him not merely in part, for they
knew that beneath the severe exterior
of one speaking with power, and sin
cerely and conscientiously alive to his
pastoral responsibilities, he possessed
always large, kindly, tender and ex-
ceedingly generous heart.
All in all, he was to those who knew
him in part their glory, as Paul says of
the faithful, holy and jealous priest.
To those who knew him better, he was
loyal friend. a lovable and genial
companion, and kind father.
"Great shall be thy glory in their sal
vation" says Holy Writ, referring to
Christ, the great High Priest, and con-
sequently to all those associated with
His eternal priesthood. Measured ac-
cordingly, how great must now be the
glory of Father DeWulf the only
glory he valued in life, when we count
up the years of his sacred ministry, and
consider the multitude of souls helped
by him onward to Christ, ftheir saliva
tion"!
Yet, even this glory may not be won
without the wounds and scars of bat
tie. Neither his length of years. nor
his sacred calling exempted him from
the trials, the perils and the tempta-
tions besetting life's throng way. Let
US add to his glory-and to our own, by
earnest and persevering prayers for his
immortal SOUL Let us by them hasten
for him the day of eternal happiness
