EASTER. Some things we reason out; by mental effort Ave arrive at some kinds of truth. But there is a kind of truth that seems to come from without, from above. We do not lind it, it finds us. As the Quakers say, "It is borne in upon us." Those are convictions that do not rest on arguments. They are not built from the ground up. They descend on the mind. They flash like the star that led the wise men. They speak like the voices to the shepherds. They appear in the risen Lord to Mary. There is nearly an universal conviction, or persuasion, that life is more than death, that death is an incident of life. At the funeral of a Chippewa Indian, when the gave was made, I said to the father of the dead man, "He is in there, is he?" "Yes," he said, "but his ponemah is not there." "Ponemah" means dream. He saidj the best he could to me: "His body is here, but his dream has risen." Dust to dust, but the spirit to God. I tliouglit at the time of the saying- of Shakespeare, "We are such stuff as dreams are made of, and our little life is rounded with a sleep." If it were a methodical question I was considering- I would take it to mathematicians, but this question of continuance of life must be taken to people of vision, of insight. What docs genius think about death? What do the writers say? You never say that a thing1 is as bright as a doubt, or as hot as a negative. Doubt suggests smoke. There is no light, nor heat, nor motion in unbelief. There is light and heat and motion in the lonely conviction of Columbus. It discovers a world. There will never be a martyr for the doctrine that life ends in a hole, that death is a dead wall. Men will talk that doctrine (admittance to the hall $1), but they never will fight for it. The crusaders went away singing to win the grave forsaken by the Lord, but there will never be a crusade to win a grave where life stop. But to get to my question. What do bright people say? I find them, with exceptions, believing in God and the soul. I shall not set things down in proper order, but as they Me in my memory and in handy books. People say of preachers they are hired to proi-laim hope and faith.

Henry D. Thoreau had no church to work for or defend. Here is an extract from his letter: i You ask particularly after my health. I suppose I have not many months to me, but, of course, I know nothing about it. I may add that I

am enjoying existence as much as ewr, and regret nothing1. Yours truly. Henry D. Thoreau, by Sophia E. Thoreau. He Avns, you know, a neighbor of Emerson and like-minded. He had heard his great teacher say: "Never strike sail to a fear. Come into port grandly or sail with Clod the sens." Emerson said of a man: "He is a poet, he has written one good line." This is the line: "If my bark sinks, 'tis to another sea." He was very fond of the saying of Schiller: "Death can not be an evil, because it is universal." There have not been many brighter women han Adelaide Proctor. My eye falls r.:m this: "Our God in Heaven, from that holy plncp, To each of us an angel tr-iid has given; But mothers of dead children have more grac,, Eor they give angels lo their God and Heaven. She knows that when th" mighty angels rais Chorus in Heaven, one little silver tone Is hers forever, that one little praise, One little happy voice, is all her own." But some one is sure to remind m of George Eliot, one of the greatest of women. We spent a good deal of a day one summer in finding her house in Cheyue Walk, and her other house in High Gate cemetery. Some oar is sure to remind me of her distinct doubt of any personal life in the greatsea, towards which we t!w. But the last book she held in her hand wa
