to do, and he labored as perseveringly and as successfully in
this field as in the other. At Tunbrook he was a hard student, and
graduated with the highest intellectual honors. From there he went to
college.

The influence of those scenes when the yellow fever was raging around
him, when the stormy ocean threatened to devour him, and perhaps more
than all others, when he stood at the open, grave of Captain McClintock,
was never obliterated from his mind. They colored his subsequent
existence; and when he came to choose a profession, he selected that of
a minister of the gospel.

The Rev. Ogden Newman is not, and never will be, a brilliant preacher;
but he is a faithful and devoted "shepherd of the sheep." The humble
parish over whose moral and spiritual welfare he presides is not more
rejoiced and comforted by his own ministrations than by the loving words
and the pure example of the gentle being who now walks hand in hand with
him in the journey of life, cheered by his presence and upheld by his
strong arm, as she was in the days of the storm and the pestilence.
Mollie McClintock is Mrs. Ogden Newman; and as together they work,
together they shall win.
