of the church, ltev. W. I .toms. of
the First Welsh Congtcgatlunal chuich
was unuble to ho ptescnt on uccount
of Illness.
ltev. Royle Introduced ltev. Kostcr
hh a man that had been closely as
sociated with Mr. Moody In his work
at Chicago, ltev. Foster said In lmit
us follows:
"1 Hist met Mr. Moody In ClrtiagJ
In the summer of ISO!, and was i lose
ly alllllated with him. In the death
of Mr. Moody. I believe, that th.
greatest light of this cental y has gonu
out. Ills life was as simple as that
of a child. He was human and had
his faults like tho test of us. He was
n man of Uod. his only aim being t)
lead souls to Chi 1st. 1 believe ovei
woik and woiiy over his woik biought
ku his death. Moody was a Jovial
man. full of Hie, but .stilet. Mr.
Moody In his tiavcls found a laige
number of voting men and women
who wanted to preach, but weie un
able. The iiu.Uk of tliesu vomit,' peopl"
Is what caused him to establish his
school at Notthtleld. His only re
quisite for admittance being equabies-'.
lively pupil desiring admission must
sign a paper, that they will do an
equal uuiount of woik and tieal each
other iquully."
In concluding Rev. Foster paid nn
elegant tribute to the noted evangelism
After the singing of "Only Remem
bered," one of Moody's famous songs,
the pastor, Rev. A. i:. Rov I, said:
"Moody's life and woik Is a standing
answer to every foe of ('hi ibttanttj .
Ills success came not fiom seholai
shlp, for he was no scholar. Like Lin
coln he was educated at the unlveislty
of natuie. His Him faith In a pi ilii
gospel was the secret of Moody's pow
er. D. j. Moody died as he had lived
a victor, now Ulffeient that funeral
