qualities of the dead man.
Although tho sermon prepared
by Dowic hefoie his death -wns not
used in tho lunoral lites-, still it
was giien out for publication.
This seimcn nuike-. it ijdninly evi
dent that Diwio did not forgive

concluded his jiosthunnous sermon
in tliu following manner
"I .shnll reluin and with ruth
