Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Addresses at the Semi-Centennial Anniversary of the Founding of the University of Rochester: June Tenth to Fourteenth, 1900
Communities, institutions, men, have a right to be judged at their best. So this apostolic epitaph - writer judged David. He might have seized upon a flaw or failing, some defect of will, some taint of blood. But, as inspired by Him Who knows all history and its laws of motive and movement in character and conduct, he the rather gives us the sweep and set of the vast central current of the man's life, in the single stroke of this simple but splendid panegyric.
