Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Classical Journal, 1905, Vol. 14
It is discouraging to go forward to a new year's work with the knowledge that one of our staunchest friends and supporters has dropped out of the ranks. But, like every faithful and heroic soul who goes out fighting, we know that he would say: Don't stop to think of me or miss me. Just carry on. Whatever we may say or write in laudation of him and his work, the best me morial of him is the carrying on of that work in which he was so intensely interested. The heaviest burden will fall upon his colleagues in his own university and his own state. They will see to it that his well-laid plans are carried through. Those of us in the larger field of his acquaintance will be prompted to more earnest endeavor by the fact that there is one less man' to do the work, but more especially by the example of one who planned widely and wisely, who always took his work seriously, and who spared no time or strength in bringing it to a successful issue.
