Zin illlemnriam Wide swung the heavenly gates and amid the carols of the angelic train triumphantly he entered-he who so short a time before had lived and laughed and talked with us here below. Yes, he has left us, but left us not without memories, dear memories, of him that we will ever cherish. James Fleet Smith, a young Christian gentleman of the noblest type, was seized in the clutches of the indiscrim- inating Angel of Death and snatched away from us just at the time when he was planning to launch forth upon the Sea of Life. Tears stream down our faces, and our hearts are weighed down with grief. Tears are selfish: they sat- isfy no one but ourselvesg so we must brace up and iight on and on, and light a better game because of the noble ex- ample that our comrade and classmate set before us. And as time passes, our present sorrows shall merge into a beau- tiful memory of him whom we now mourn.
