Excerpt from A Tribute to the Memory of John Millott Ellis, D. D., Professor of Philosophy in Oberlin College: From the Faculty to the Alumni of the College Professor Ellis had a judicial mind, and was capable of looking at a subject upon all sides. This implied that he was free from personal feeling, from prejudice, and from bias, and made his judgment of great value to us. This quality revealed itself in all the relations which he sustained. It was appar ent in the class-room and was appreciated by his pupils. It is safe to venture the statement that no student of Professor Ellis ever complained that he had been unfairly treated. He marked fairly, judged fairly, both the ability and the character of his pupils, and was quite capable of looking at things from their standpoint. He respected the scholarship and good qualities of his students. None of them ever left his recitation room with out a sense of encouragement, without feeling that they could do something in the world with the powers which they had. His influence was always encouraging, never depressing to those under his care. He taught them to respect their own powers and to be hopeful as to the results of their future work.
