Died:
Eulogy, in part, for Morris Lambie, written and presented by Reverend Robert B. Day, D.D.
The character of Morris Lambie was, of course, distinguished by many other qualities than purity of heart and generosity of spirit. Nothing, however, would be more alien to his taste than to proceed farther than we have gone along such lines. And yet, it would be a deplorable omission to bring this brief tribute to a close without mentioning his very genuine enthusiasm for life, his stout heart, and the sense of dedication to the true and the good which, in the sunset of his years, took him very nearly to the other side of the world.
College days at Williamstown were happy for days for Morris Lambie. And before that his happy, wholesome boyhood in the city of Northampton. There it was he met the companion and helpmeet of the years that followed. Years of study abroad succeeded by his career as a teacher and a public servant first at the University of Minnesota, subsequently for twenty years at Harvard ? and in the home stretch a term or two aft Tufts. Toward all these institutions, let it be said, he had the deepest loyalty.
