Author Description

Excerpt from The Lotus for 1915 His life was gentle and the elements So mixed In him that N ature might stand up And say to all the world 'this Was a man.' When Dr. Henry Jerome Stockard passed away, last autumn, the State of North Carolina lost one of her noblest sons, a deep thinker, a great educator and a singer of songs that were beautiful; and the Peace girls lost a true friend. Beautiful tributes have been paid him by loving friends, far and near, but he cannot be missed more, by any, than by those girls of Peace who sat at his feet in the classroom, and who knew and loved him as friend, adviser and college president.
