TRIBUTES TO HIS MEMORY. 307 surroundings by the saintliness of their character and by the manner of their life. We feel as we meet them that the world is better by their presence and richer by their example. They seem to cxhalate from themselves a fragrance which comes like a refreshing breeze to a thirsty land. Consciously or unconsciously, we are better by their presence and uplifted by their example. They are to be mot with in every country and in every clime, they are not the especial products of any religion or of any civilization. As I stand here this afternoon my mind goes back to two such men whom I have known myself in my own country. One, an Oxford Tutor, whose name is not known to you, William Campion. The other, who is probably known to you, at any rate by name, Henry Scott Holland, for many years a Canon of the Cathedral Church of St. Paul's in London and subscquently, Regius Professor of Divinity in the University of Oxford. And Sir Gooroo Dass IBanerjee seemed to me to be one of such men. You cannot conceive of any action or thought of his as mean or petty, he was above and beyond such thingsactuated only by the highest motives, exacting from himself and from others the highest standards, and living always in the light of that religion which he cherished and loved so well. The world is better by their lives and poorer by their loss. In the dust of controversy, in the strivings for place and power, in the searchings for material wealth, in the rush and hurry of these modern days, it is well that we should turn aside for a few brief moments this afternoon
