skull, wherein once his active brain wrought for the good of all, now hangs like a beacon from the leafless arm of some withered tree! He would have been the first to tell us that no such things could affect his life. For that was hid with Christ in God. The world is his tomb. We know that his sleep is sweet. Obdormivit in Christo.

"His last words to his friends in England-scribbled by the light of some camp fire-were :

RECORDS OF THE LIFE OF THE
REV. WM. H. HAVERGAL, M.A.

By his Daughter, JANE MIRIAM CRANE.
"Yet speaketh!' In the memory of those
To whom he was indeed 'a living song."

-FRANCES RIDLEY HAVERGAL. "Canon Havergal was no ordinary man. He was rich in grace as well as rich in gifts. 'Who could see him and not love him?' asked a brother pastor, his friend for many years. The readers of 'The Memorials of Frances Ridley Havergal' will remember how intense was her veneration for her loved father; and these pages will show how justly he held the highest place in the affections of all who knew him. The Biography is admirably written, and gives charming word-pictures of home and parish life. The Illustrations include a portrait from a painting by S. Cole, and another from a bust taken by Robert Pauer, of Creuznach. Engravings are also given of Astley Church, and St. Nicholas' Church, Worcester."-The Church Standard.
