In Memoriam Dr. T. N. HASSELQUIST w l$x m Page Twenty

Page 23 text:

Dr. T. N. Hasselquist 1816e1916 HE memory of Dr. T. N. Hasselquist is dear to us all. With his name are linked great memories of our past history, for he was. one of the pioneers and staunch workers in the estahlishment of Swedish Lutheranism in this- Jand of ours. 0m- parents, who loved and revered this name, instilled us with the same love and 110110? toward him and thru them we have hecnme attached to him. Toichiy, as students at Angustana, we are enjoying the fruits of his labors, for he was vitally interested in uphuilding and maintaining a center at Christian education. He was untiring in his .eli'm'ts to Promote the cause of Christ in this way, and thru our college he has made his influence felt everywhere within our Church. D'r. Hasseiqnist was president of August mt for about 28 years and during that time he built her 1113 on solid foundations. The interests of Augustann. were riear to his heart. He nourished her well. He was anxious for the well being of her students. He was in truth theii .. 1ide, their friend, in short, their father, and so he was anxious 1'01 their progress and he rejoiced to see his progress come. Surely it has come, mail as we look hack on the past we cannot but feel grateful for such a man as Dr. Hasselquist. Is it any wonder that we love him, revere him, who did so much that she might prosper? He was a. godly 1mm, simple and profound, severe and yet sympathetic. He had a great personality. He was a consecrated, diligent, and upright laborer in Go: is vineyard. In this he meant much for our Church and thm this he exerted a powerful infiuence upon his own generation and those that have followed since. He had a noble character: and we cannot but feel that this character speaks to 115, as if he lived among us but yesterday. Years have passed since D11 Hasselquist was active in these halls of 0111's. Several generations of stuc'ients have since then gone out from these halls into the various walks of life, and they, too, like us, have felt the inHuence of him as a power, an incentive to a greater and a better life. . As we go about 0111' work, our duties, day by Clay may we remember what he stood for. May his memory inspire us to greater things. May it he an incentive to he more diligent and earnest. May it show us what we may become. How we may also be servants in the same Masterk work Our work is a continuation of What he began, it. is along the same line-the advancement of Goths Kingdom among menea pointing and a showing of men the way unto salvation. May the same spirit actuate and stir us tn cheerfuliy enter into the work which lies before us, to apply our hearts and lives to the greater things of life, that 0111' lives may have a wider and more far-reaching influence for the muse of right. May the memory of Dr. Hasselquist be blessed among us and the generations of students who are to follow us in these dear old halls of 0111' Alma Mater! $ Page Twenty-mle
