ROBERT J. BURDETTE. Bryn Mawr, Penn.
HIS BROAD HUMANITIES.
It is the mission of death to glorify. In its presence defects, im- perfections, mistakes fall off, and what was intended comes to the light. Death wipes the dust from the surface of the mirror, enabling us to see its full brightness. So it has been in this case. Though Mr. Beecher's great services, civil and religious, have been acknowledged, yet, in many quarters, the acknowledgment has been made grudgingly, with qualification and aba...tement. Now it is full, cordial, unstinted. The man deserves all the praise that has been lavished upon him. He has earned his monument, whether it be a bronze statue, a library, a volume of laudation, or a devout memory in loving hearts. Even his limitations make his achievements more radiant, as showing against what restraining difficulties he struggled, and how a spiritual aim kept his current clear.
The cardinal element in Mr. Beecher's nature was feeling. He put the heart before the head. His great word was love.
