Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Bowdoin Alumnus, Vol. 8: November 1933
To many of us here this afternoon Bow' doin will be a very different, place without his presence. It is one of the inexplicable mysteries that one who was so well fortified both by the inner resources of his mind and spirit and by the amplitude of material possessions should be taken away in the prime of life with years of usefulness and happiness beckoning on the horizon. But it is only another illustration of the truth so patent yet so hard to accept that over life and death we have no control and that there are realms where faith alone can enter. Loyalty to truth as it was given him to see the truth, and loyalty to beloved institutions, and loyalty to friends, have And in bidding him a long hail and farewell - Ave atque Vale there is the note not of sadness or despair but of triumph and gratitude. May the earth rest lightly upon him; may he rest in peace; may light and mercy perpetually shine upon_ him.
