D.C., the theological department of which is under the care
of the Association, and in which Dr. Patton was a teacher. Thus from the
founding of the Association till the time of his death, Dr. Patton had
been connected with it, sometimes officially, and always with deep
sympathy and earnest co-operation.

He was in usual health, with his wonted vigor of body and mind, till
within a few hours of his death, and on the day on which that occurred,
his Presidency of Howard University expired by the terms of his
resignation. He seemed to be fitted for further usefulness, and had
looked forward with the expectation of using his pen and voice in the
interests of the Master whom he had so faithfully served, but the scene
of his active enjoyment and services was by that Master transferred to
the higher realm.

REVIVAL AT STRAIGHT UNIVERSITY.

President Hitchcock writes from Straight University: "Our meetings
during the 'week of prayer,' took on the character of revival meetings,
and I have never before seen the school so stirred. Every girl boarding
in Stone Hall is professedly converted, and there are not more than
eight or ten boys who are not in the same good way, and every one of
these is interested and has asked for prayers. Rejoice with us and pray
for us."
