worthy model for the student for
whom he dedicated his life, but for. the
citizen, the husband, the man. For
US all, he left a record of sincerity
and honor hat no one may follow
without profit to himself and to the
community. Would that God gave us
more such men and permitted them
to tarry longer.
F. B. Sapp.
The word that best characterizes
DR.. Knowlton is, that he was a scholar
INC christian gentleman.
DR.. knowlton was great in his sim
plicity: kindly in his bearing and SYM
pathetic to the core. He was great
enough to be unconscious. of his great
ness when mingling with his fellows
and while seeking rest and peace in
the house of God.
The passing of Prof. William James
is still felt as a loss to the whole
world, and so shall the loss of DR..
Knowlton be felt through the coming
years in the whole community in
which he lived and wrought SO nobly.
He blessed all whom he touched.
For mere information, he cared lit
tie; truth was the passion of his great
soul.
The sincerity Of his life and the loft
mess Of his aims are the chief assets
to intellectual and spiritual wealth.
| The instincts of the true scholar were
his in a marked degree. The single
| gain in his loss is, that many will
| pause to consider" the great. unselfsh
and simple life which he lived, and
while admiring, will discover the best
within themselves, and take fresh
courage and begin to live nobler and
truer lives.
We feel hat but a thin veil separ-
ates him from u heart Of hearts.

In the death of DR.. P. G.. Knowlton,

The college has not had, and never

porter than Doctor .KnoWlton. His
ambition was to see how much of en-

could put into the college and how lit
tie of money he must take out upon
which to live. His salary was always
cruelty meager. The career. of every

DR.. Knowlton was a fine and rare
type Of a good man. Throughout a
a lifetime he poured his soul and his
intellect into the hearts and minds Of
those who came under his tuition, Civ
ing unselfishly, inspiring all.
AS. a frank and wise counsellor, a
consistent and deep thinker, with the
expressions of his life consistent with
his thoughts, he will continue to be an
inspiration in all relations wherever
he was known.
Edward Eneerud.
DR.. Knowlton was a fine example Of
the good citizen. His thought and
conduct were controlled and directed
wholly by that sense of duty which is
born of an unfaltering christian faith.
His aim and motives were to apply
his abilities to the utmost in efficient
service for the good of his fellow man.
Men of. such qualities and having the
capacity and training such as DR..
KnoWlton had to make those qualities
effectual, are rare.
William Ballou.
DR.. Knowlton's fulillment of his
mission is of such perfection Us men
often covet and seldom achieve. With
him to teach and to encourage were
synonyms. BY his true calling and
election to this service he made of the
cherished talks with the large group
of men who sought his guidance slim
uli the worth Of which cannot be meas
ured or valued. Out of the class Don
not less than within he was instructor,
leader sand inspirer. A great 3throng
Of seekers have been heartened by him
with a vision "of tile social sense dis
tending wide" His hope was high as
the genius of democracy and his faith
