Prof. Upham five years ago resigned the position in the College which he had held forty-three years, and, when he bid farewell to Brunswick, felt that lie was leaving home. He has now been brought back to this which we are wont to call his last home. But it is only the last home for a wearied, dismantled, perishing tenement dust to dust, ashes to ashes. His everlasting home is with his God and Saviour above; or, to use his own words, the first articulate speech he uttered after his fatal seizure, his soul is with God. It seemed due to his memory and to ourselves, to us of the College and to us of this community, who, by the constant inquiry regarding his condition from all classes since the first tidings of his illness came to VL8, showed how deep and wide was the interest in him, it seemed fitting that these funeral rites should not be suffered to pass without some more formal testimonial of our respect and regard for his memory, and an attempt to gather up our recollections of the remarkable life which has now come to the end of earth.
