Excerpt from William Keith Brooks, 1848-1908: Reunion of the Alumni, November, 1908 As one of those who knew Dr. Brooks longest, I have been requested to. Say a few words about the rare man, the chosen spirit, whose presence was a light to this Uni versity, whose work will abide forever as a precious possession; and it is all ours, for this was his intellectual and spiritual home. But, after listening to President Remsen's analysis of his varied activity, and to Dr. Hurd's vivid description of the man as he lived and moved, I realize my utter incompetence to deal with so complex a subject, and the feeling returns that first came to expres sion upon the announcement of his death, the vain regret that, although we had lived and worked so long within the same academic walls, I had not known him better. It is the same feeling that comes over one when one thinks of all the music that might have lifted the soul to higher regions and yet has died unheard. But Dr. Brooks had fixed his residence far from the haunts of most of us, and. In any case, it is a sad fact that only a few in this body of seekers after truth ever come into close personal contact. In: the rush of the life that we must lead if we are to be'faithful, we only get glimpses of what is going forward in the minds and hearts of our colleagues. We are like trains moving on parallel tracks. We catch sight of some face, some form that appeals to us, and it is gone. Yet, in the measure of my understanding, there was no one of our number that I admired more than I did Dr. Brooks.
