Book excerpt: Excerpt from Paul Swift, M.D., Late Professor at Haverford College: Read by Request at Haverford College, Also, Before the Teachers' Association of Friends of Philadelphia Yearly Meeting The 013 rvxtbv eve? Of Longinus (if I am not mistaken) is true of the Doctor. He was not a chance man - not such a man as one might meet every day, but a man of strik ing character, calculated to exert an influence and to make an impression on the minds of all who met him. In Dr. Swift as a Teacher, his success and faithful ness as a trainer of the intellect, are well shown. But besides-his thoroughness, his enlisting all the senses to aid in the work of education, his practicalness, his making it a first object to train the hearts and con sciences of his students, there was a trait in the Whole life of our lamented friend, above all these. It was a strong and an abiding effort to be the thing he seemed, - to be, even beyond what he required of others, an example in all these ln'mself. It was a high-toned sincerity, which governed him in word and deed, and was the substratum of his whole moral formation.
