he added, there
was always _something_ to remember in everything he said. With regard to
another point, a clergyman who knew Sir Andrew very intimately once told
me that "No man of this century had a more keenly religious mind; he was
so saturated with thoughts of God and so convinced that God had spoken
to man. He was intensely religious, with a profound sense of the
supernatural; he certainly was a great example to very busy men in the
way he always managed to find time for church, and even when called away
to a distance he would, if possible, go to a church near where he
happened to be." In addition to these qualities, he was very just,
sympathetic, and generous.

I have come across many friends who knew him well, and it is interesting
to note that the same cardinal points seem to have struck everyone as
the key-notes of his life. In almost identical words each one speaks of
his strong faith, his strict veracity, and his intense devotion to duty.
One of his old friends said to me the other day: "_Nothing_ would tempt
Clark away from what he thought right; his conscientiousness was
unbounded."

His love of metaphysics, combined with a very high motive, made him
naturally interested in the _whole_ man--body, mind, and spirit. To
quote the words of a well-known bishop: "It was his intrepid honesty
which was so valuable a quality. In Sir Andrew Clark men felt that he
wished to do them good, and to do them the best good, by making men
of them."

The bishop told me a characteristic anecdote illustrating this: "A
clergyman complained to him of feeling low and depressed, unable to face
his work, and tempted to rely on stimulants. Sir Andrew saw that the
position was a perilous one, and that it was a crisis in the man's life.
He dealt with the case, and forbade resort to stimulants, when the
patient declared that he would be unequal to his work and ready to sink.
'Then,' said Sir Andrew, 'sink like a man!'" This is but one of many
incidents showing his marvellous power in restraining his patients and
raising them to a higher moral level. The writer could tell a far more
wonderful story of the saving of a drunkard, body and soul, but it is
too touching and sacred for publication. At the top of the wall of that
well-known consulting-room (i
