meeting, it was my duty and privilege to give a tributeto your dear mother, and, as I spoke, her beautiful life did so openout before me, and the sweet essence and fragrance of her memorythat we met wherever we followed her in the East. Our churcharound the world are mourners today for her loss, but not for hervictory. I mourn with you, as do multitudes of others. We are allthe poorer without her, but I rejoice with you as well over the life,and find victory in such a life. Happy children and grandchildrenin coming into such an heritage! At the memorial of her at themeeting of the Executive Committee some one said we might haveknown she would go to heaven in no uncommon way. In the winterof 1897-8 Dr. Baldwin and I made a tour of eastern Asia for oursocieties, and everywhere her memory was as a precious perfumeamong the natives and missionaries. I congratulate her childrenupon having had such a beautiful mother. The whole church knewand loved her, and we are all mourners with her own.

EARLY PASTORS OF MARY C. NIND WHO CONTRIBUTEDTO HER RELIGIOUS GROWTH 1 Rev. S. N. Griffith 2 Rev. Ckauncy Hokart 3 Rev. Wm. McKinley Individual Tributes 199 At the memorial services which were held in Detroit, one of thespeakers was Mrs. A. W. Patten, president of the NorthwesternBranch. It had been the intention to reproduce the remarks madeby Mrs. Patten on that occasion. In reply to the request for a copyof what was said, Mrs. Patten wrote: My remarks, which werespoken at the time out of a full heart, I did not write out and pre-serve, and have no memory of now. However, nothing that couldhave been said could have adequately expressed my sense of thevalue of your mothers life. She was a monument of what Godsgrace can do in making a disciple of Him great. She yielded herselfto Him, and she became a prophet. It always seemed to me whenshe spoke as if an angel had placed a live coal taken from Godsaltar upon her lips. Mrs. L. H. Jennings, recording secretary of the NorthwesternBranch
