INTRODUCTION VII grappled with it. I am sure the Christian community would hail with pleasure a revival of the Indian wigwam enterprise. I may add that Dr. Rand was one of the few men I have known who seemed to be on terms of reverential intimacy with the blessed Lord and Master of us all. When praying he knew and felt that the Lord was listening. To him there was reality in all acts of worship, and he helped others to realize the presence of God . There was no hard, high, dead wall between him and the Father, Son and Holy Spirit . As he advanced in years he dropped the cen- sorioimiess in which he sometimes indulged in earlier years. A man like Dr. Rand is a gift from God , for which any community ought to be grateful; and the remembrance of him ought to be lovingly cherished. ROBERT MURRAY . Halifax, Nov. 1, 1899. "8g==E
