Excerpt from Addresses in Memory of Prof. Edward T. Fristoe
But if his life, so far as it came under my observa tion, may be said, in a certain sense, to have oscillated betwixt smiles and tears, it would be a great mistake to suppose that his long and useful career moved in the Sphere of the emotions alone. Not enjoyment, and not sorrow is our destined end or way, as one of our own poets has said. We all can say, with entire assurance.
