Excerpt from In Memoriam, Hon. Joshua N. Marshall: Born in Dracut, Mass., May 22, 1830, Died in Lowell, Mass., March 2, 1895My most appropriate place to-day is among the mourners. I look for the last time on the face of a very dear friend. It was forty-five years ago last Sep tember, in the Freshman Class in Amherst College, that I first met him whose mortal remains lie before us to-day, and whose departure from us we all lament. Joshua N. Marshall, when he entered college, won at once the confidence and the love of his teachers and of his fellow-pupils. There was an honesty, a frankness, a manliness, about him which attracted all. I knew him intimately, for we boarded at the same table two years. In college he took a fair rank as a scholar, and he was at the head of our class as an orator. After he left col lege he studied law and settled in this busy city, where for forty years he has gone out and in with the citizens.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
