Mi<« Metzger w:u for several years in charge of the Department of Vocal Music at Randolph- Macon Woman's College, and WHS widely known in this city. Her activities touched our social and intellectual life at so many points and al ways with such beneficent grace, that the intelli gence of her death brings a sense of irreparable loss. An artist of pronounced ability and nn usual conscientiousness, she left her impress wherever her work was done. Hut not only with" in the sphere of her legitimate labors was her in" fluence felt; it readhed out far beyond and bless* ed and brightened everything and everybody with which it came in contact. Her musical concep tions and standards were pure and high; as an interpreter of her art she has never had a super ior in our midst, and she was equally gifted as an inspirer of genuine appreciation and of musi cal feeling. Rarely has a woman so richly dow ered beenamo ig us,for in addition toher geuious for music, she possessed a marked talent for art. Indeed, at one time it waA a question whether she should pursue music or painting as a career. And cementing these beautiful gifts was a per sonality so magnetic, a womanliness sostrong and tender, a kindliness of such exquisite sym pathy and generosity, a character of so noble fibre that one was tempted to forget the artist in the creature. How many acts of disinterested goodness can we recall of her who has gone! The memories of her fair life weave themselves into the harmonies she wrought and linger around us as a breathing symphony. In thathigh realm wherein she walked, how well did she ex emplify the real unity between Art and Ethics— the one Indivisible Beauty that gathers into its imperishable radiance all thought and living." REV. O. S METZLER SAYS. I had planned togo to Emporium to-day that I might attest by iny presence, simply silently, at the funeral my profound regard for the one so loved and esteemed and respected by us all - but the placing of the services for Sunday will render my attendance impossible and I feel that I must further and more fully express my deep sorrow of heart and the sence of sympathy, sin cere, that I continue to feel toward all upon whom this bereaving stroke has fallen so heavily. When I received the news in my home the tears started to my eyes and from the shock occasioned Ido not and cannot recover. There is something inexpressibly sad and mysterious that this soul so dependent on the ministries of others and with others so dependent on her min istries, so clinging to life in everv fiber of her be- I p ummer Grocerie3 - • ROYAL TT\ A.

J lag,so in love with lite and fitted in all the ampl i tude and fullness of her powers fjr its tit tir Ml r» quirernents, togo down into the silencer and shadows, and that under circuin-itancsM from which we nil instinctively recoil, is baffling to the finite understanding and to unravel the mystery or mitigate the grief that has gathered around so many hearts is something that I will not attempt. 1 liave as much need to be com forted as to administer cheer and ouldlbeat the funeral, the attitude most befitting my feel ings would be absolute non-participation Others may tell the story of her life, its self for getfuilness, its struggles, its triumpns, its devo tion to the welfare of others. Her essential strength, strength of will, of energy, of indust rv of patience, constantly impressed me. To ac complish what she did was not easy, but her will was strong enough to compell her life to do noble service and to achieve results scarcely, | short of wonderful. She was a true woman. No one could come within the sphere of her presence and not feel all that was true, chival rous and manly going out toward the woman at his side. It was the fine potent power of her femininity, her gentleness, her goodness, her sincerity and purity, that evoked all that was reverent in the human heart. One of the finest things that can be said about her was that she had troops of friends among all classes. On the pubhc siieofher life she had deserved honor and on the private side she had honor and reverent affection. But she has gone from mortal sight but not from the sight of the soul. She ha* gone from the sorrows and pains ami perplexi ties of life but she has passed into the morning of immortality. We all know of her love for the summers spent in Emporium, and with what pleasure sho hailed the return of her annual I vacation period. She frequently said to me that it made her stronger in health and steadier in nerves to spend the bright summer days amid the beautiful hills of her girlhood home. She said these days made her better in everyway and in fact were necessary to her in the restored en - eregv it gave her for her arduous- work, to be taken up with the resumption of the school term. But with the home-»oming this year, there were greener pastures and purer breeies awaiting her and she was not long to remain away from them. Apropo are these words of our own Whittier. Ood giveth quietness at last. The common way that all must She went with mortal yearning fond. To fuller life and love beyond. I am truly your friend, O. S. METZLER.
