On the Death of a Good Woman

Copyright, 1914, by Frank Crane. in
Paul Dispatch: She is dead. AS
in the case Of all whom we knew to
be intensely alive, we cannot make it
real. Nothing can convince us, In our
inner Consciousness, that she is not by,
and may not any moment come in
ur,on us.
I shall set down no facts of her life.
In the presence Of the great eternities
of her character and of her life now
in the heavens, the commonplace it
ems Of the date and place of her birth
and the incidents of her career seem
to fade and make no matter.
Rather let us recall those traits of
soul whereby she appealed to US, and
revealed to us the richness of our
common humanity.
First of all, she was brave. This
was the key to her life.
All the old enemies of soul met her
and had their way with her. She met
them as a good soldier. Not that she
was hard and s%toical, nor did she take
the usual refuge of small natures in
bitter cyniCism. She suffered keenly.
When she was smitten she was in eX-
quisite pain.
But the pain to her was a call to
arms. She rallied. She had many re-
sources. She was cast down. but new
CT OSlSdlShs
Because she was, in the center Of
her life, brave-souled, she was cheer
full. She carried high every day the
flag of hope and courage; all about
her teo kheart to see her.
She was gay and debonair as the
last warrior on the battlefield.
She wrung out her heart in silent
agony, in terrible asides, and came
back to us smiling and unafraid again.
She was good. Not in any unreal or
artificial piety, but good in the deep
strength of the fundamental virtues
that make women great.
Her goodness lay in the strength of
her humanities. Her love was strong,
even violent, but beautiful because 1t
was loyal.
Her purity was not circumstantial;
1t was instructive.
Her kindness was sweetly u~nreason-
able. There was no method in it; il
simply pushed her to continuous
thoughtfulness and helpfulness. What
ever or whoever was weak or unfor-
tunate, or treated unjustly, was a
The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1914-08-13

challenge to her. which she took up
instantly. IA
Her heart was very great and wide.
Whoever lodged there never was cast
out. She was almost stubborn and
over-brave in her loyalties. ~.
The deep sanctities Of her nature
were not the kind that lead to
pedestals and isolation; they were the
kind to live with. They who saw her
daily, and to whom she uncovered her
secret thoughts and wants, were they
who loved her most.
I can say no better thing of any
person than what / can say Of her,
that she was the sort of human being
you would turn to in any trouble,
whether you were sinner or sinned
against, and be sure of welcome and
defense in her.
She loved life, loved pretty things.
loved genuine and honest people, low
ed fine action, loved all that gives
color and richness to life. Her soul
was in no sense anemic 1t was red
bloOded.
We cannot think her dead. All that
great current of human feeling and
purpose must live on-somewhere. She
has added, by her passing, to the
reality of that unknown home whittier
she has gone, and whittier we are NOV
ing surely.
The only real proof of immortality
Is love, for love alone grasps the
majesty and essential indistTuctibility
Of human life. Another reason for be-
lieving in a heaven, where the crooked
things of life are made straight, and
where the injustice of life is smoothed
into perfect equity, Is that she has
gone there.
She Is dead. We love her still and
will always. Hence she lives and
awaits us. This is the argument OF
the heart, nan times more conVlnc-
ing, than any reasoning of the
brain.
She is gone; gone like a sweet ship
that we watch through tear-misty eyes
as it sails out into the vast sea.
But what freight of hope and faith
she carries! We stand upon the pier
and wave her goodbye, and shout till
she can hear no more:
"Good-b bye! We will see you soon!"
