J., September 26th, 1881 After the address of Judge Titsworth, Mrs. Clementine lasar-studwell, came unexpectedly upon the stage, and in the most feeling and exquisite manner, as only those who heard her can appreciate, sung that sublime composi tion of Handel's - I know that my Redeemer liveth This not being on the programme of exercises, was a sur prise to the entire audience, who listened in breathless silence as she poured out her soul in the melody of that most eloquent piece of music. Nothing more appropriate and touching could have occurred. She was accompanied by Mr. S. A. Ward at the organ. The addresses of both the orators of the evening were most attentively listened to and appreciated by the audience. Late in the evening the exercises of the day came to a close. A well-executed, complete and eloquent tribute to the honor and memory of a martyred President endeared in the hearts of fifty millions of people.
