His methods have been employed in all subsequent cases, and after seventy years of trial remain the standard. Memoir of Dr. Samuel G. Howe, by Julia Ward Howe. Hand in hand with Dorothea Dix, he was beginning the great fight for helping and uplifting the insane; was already, with Horace Mann, considering the condition of the common schools, and forging the weapons for other fights which laid the foundations of the school system of Massachusetts. Later, he was to take up the cause of the feeble-minded, the deaf mute, the prisoner, the slave; throughout his life, no one in trouble, sorrow, need, sickness, or any other adversity was ever to call on him in vain. His friends called him the Chevalier ; partly because the King of Greece had made him a Knight of St. George, but

I visited my Mother Otis Mrs. Harrison Gray Otis. on Thursday evening, and had a pleasant time.

It was a grievous thing to her to make this sacrifice; she said to Horace Mann that to give up Parker's ministry for any other would be like going to the synagogue when Paul was preaching near at hand; yet, once made, it was the source of a lifelong joy and comfort. Mr. Clarke was then preaching at Williams Hall; hearing Parker speak of him warmly, she determined to attend his services. She found his preaching as unlike as possible to that of Theodore Parker. He had not the philosophic and militant genius of Parker, but he had a genius of his own, poetical, ha
