I did not know him intimately, although I loved him. One night I could not sleep. I had spent the whole night thinking. I arose early and sat down by the window to road. I looked out across the court, and could not help witnessing a scene which will remain in my memory forever. It was very early in the morning, and this minister of Christ had arisen before m'e. He had dressed himself and was sitting by the window with the Word of God on his knee, and was in rapturous worship as he was reading. When at Atlantic City we were holding a memorial service for Ur. Mabie, as I heard one after another speak of his wonderful life and consecration, that picture in the hotel came hack to me. and I saw again Dr. Mabie reading the \Vord of God before six o‘clock on that Sunday morning. liver after. although I never mentioned it to him, when he came into my otl'ice or his path crossed mine.
