Pr�sentation de l'�diteur

Biographical. f Tis fitting, when a life of great power or great usefulness passes from the visible into the invisible realm, that some history or memorial of it should be written besides that recorded in its outward and visible results. Especially is this true of the teacher, whose work is to a great extent impalpable to the senses, and whose life lives largely in the lives and characters influenced and moulded by it. And yet such lives are generally least able to be separated in their integral elements from those into which they pass. The daily routine of constant, and too often unappreciated and unrewarded toil, passes by like that of the sun in the heavens, unnoticed until it disappears, and is known only, or chiefly, by the blessings it silently sheds, and the fruits it slowly developes. To such the divine words preeminently apply, Whoso loseth his life shall find it But the finding is often deferred till it has passed from the earthly to the heavenly state. The life here briefly delineated was identified in a remarkable degree with the Institution to which she devoted its greater portion. This renders it appropriate to weave together the history of the two, as far as they can be recovered and outlined in a memorial sketch, rather than a biography.
