Synopsis
Excerpt from A Commemorative Discourse on the Life and Character of Prof. Charles Edward Hamlin, LL. D. Delivered in the Chapel of Colby University, July 5th, 1887
It is therefore especially fitting that we pause in the very height of these joyous festivities to recall the memory of him whose bright spirit was once the charm and beauty of these academic shades.
A life uniting such superiority of mind to such nobility of nature a life of such devoted consecration to the highest ideals of culture and character; of such scrupulous fidelity to every smallest or greatest trust; a life of such simple piety, of such absolute sincerity; a life so well fitted to arouse within us all truest aspirations; such a life is not so common that we can afford to let it pass unnoticed.
Let us then contemplate for an hour, the life, character and service of our fallen brother.
The family name, Hamlin, had its origin in the Norman French Hamelin, which crossed the channel with the conqueror, in 1066, a date when surnames were yet unknown.
