  The grandest eulogy that could be given to man was paid him by his 
father who has proceeded him to the great beyond, when the evening 
shadows of life, was gathering around him, he called this son to him, 
and said: "In all your life you have never given me one moments 
uneasiness or worry save in sickness, what more could be said to 
brighten the paths or strengthen man's hope what assurance more than 
this could be saught to deserve the comforting words, well done, when 
the end came."
