LYMAN ABBOTT. IS DEAD AT
 EICHTY-SIX

NEW YORK, Oct 23.-Dr. Lyman Abbott, editor of the Outlook Maga- zine, died at his home here today aged S6
 The Rev. Lyman Abbott, D. D., was one of the most active leaders in many avenues of religious and civic thought in the United States. AS preacher, editor, author and theolo- gian he exhibited a quality of char acter which impressed itself on all who came in contact with him, a singular poise and serenity of spirit.
 In his early youth, after gradu- ation from the University of the city of New York, he studied law and was admitted to the bar, and afterwards praticed in partnership with his brothers, Benjamin V. and Austin Abbott. Giving up the law for the ology, he studied for the ministry of the Congregational Church, with his uncle, s. c. Abbott, and was or dained at Farmington Me, in 1860. His first charge was in Terre Haute, Ind, where he remained five years.
 As editor of the Christian Union, which was later to be known as The Outlook, his work, in association with that of the Rev. Henry Ward Beech CT, marked him as man of great Itrhn not too narrowly conventionalized, but overlapping and spiritualizing many of the social and civil problems of the time. After the death of MT, Beecher, Dr. Abbott became pastor of Plymouth Church, in Brooklyn. where his predecessor had earned fame as one of the foremost pulpit orators in America. He was installed in Plymouth Church January Is, 1890. and remained in charge until 1899, when he resigned. He published life of Henry Ward Beecher and a volume of his sermons.
 In Dr. Abbotts work as editor of The Outlook. in which he was as- sociated in his long career with many famous men, including Theodore Roosevelt. he sought to interpret the different orders of political organiza- tions from the Christian viewpoint.
 Dr. Abbott was known not only to his friends and co-workers but to the public as we'll as rational optimist; one who sees clearly pres ent obstacles and evils, but is con- fident that the creative forces in society are making for the freedom and happiness of man, and must pre- vail Moderation and sanity were the chief notes of his temperament and attitude. He commanded at tention by his transparent sincerity and by a gift of clear persuasive statement.
 pr. Abbott was born in Roxhury. Mass. December IS, 1885. In 1857. he married Abby Frances Hamlin. who died in 1907. By her Dr. Abbott had six children. two of whom, Ernest H. and Lawrence F., were as- sociated with him in the manage ment of The Outlook
