Excerpt from Robert Garry the Man of One Book, Who Went About Doing Good Skilled Mechanic Brave Soldier Faithful Disciple of Jesus Christ, Skilful and Successful Personal Worker: A Memorial of a Rare Life Recently there died of pneumonia two sol diers in service. One of these was a line om cer of distinction, well born and well bred, a politician well up the ladder of national life, much talked about, a member of several clubs, comparatively young. He was wealthy and left a fairly large fortune to his family. The other was an old soldier, who had served with distinction in the Civil War, and at the time death was engaged in the Young Men's Christian Association War Work, in Camp Wadsworth, Spartanburg, South Carolina. He was born of poor parents, reared amidst poverty, inured to hardships, and lived a comparatively obscure life. He was never in the limelight, but spent and ended his days in the light of the knowledge of the glory of God. Of this old soldier I am asked to write a memorial.
