Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Memorial of Ella Campbell Ewing
During commencement week at Eureka College in June, 1907, a group of the class of 1905, after a class dinner, was discussing the changes the two years of separation had brought. Uppermost in the minds of all was the loss which had come through the death of Ella Ewing after a service of three months in a mission station at Bolenge, Africa. This was a personal loss to all of these members of the class, for in her each had a friend. What could they do to show their appreciation of her life? One thing there suggested was the writing of a little volume that should tell her life story simply - just as it had been lived. It was believed that this might be an inspiration to young men and women who should read it for nobler, more consecrated living wherever their lives were cast. Perhaps in this way the in?uence of her life might be increased.
It is with this desire that the book has been prepared. It has been hard not to eulogize when the subject has been so tempting, but the effort has been to tell the story truly and simply.
