Excerpt from Brown Alumni Monthly, Vol. 14: November, 1913 It is a wonderful thing to ponder on, that great multitude, which no man can number, Of aspiring souls who, In couse crated labor and faithful to their vision, have slowly built up the majestic fabric of our American Ideal; and still more inspiring is the thought that each one of these lives has contributed an essential part to the splendid whole. With this thought in mind, I feel that the life of my dear brother, though seemingly half fulfilled, has, in truth, contributed its own essential atom, and therefore this slight Sketch of his life has its place in the record of what the sons of Brown have accomplished.
