"A most remarkable man of the world, first and always devoted to the right... From his early days, he seemed anxious and willing to be an assistant to all... Studied and acted what would be assistance in the world's care..."
— Mr. and Mrs. C.W. Gibson

"He took his pleasure and his recreation in large part in the quietude of this (his) library. He enjoyed the society of his books. Books of the type we find here and among which he employed his leisure hours are not idle friends nor uncongenial companions. He lived among them because of his innate love of knowledge." — Beverly L. Hodgehead
