Excerpt from A Sketch of the Life of John Gilbert: Together With Extracts From His Letters and Souvenirs of His Career HE death of John Gilbert [june 17, 1889, at Bos ton], although an event rationally to be expected - for he was close on eighty years of age - comes upon the community with a painful shock and diffuses a bleak sense of loneliness and grief. The actor, the gentleman, the friend whom we shall never any more behold in his accustomed places, had lived with us a long time; had become entwined with some of our most precious memories and associations and had grown to be as essential to the fullness of our enjoy ment as he was dear to our reverent affection. His death deprives us of a cherished source of happiness more to be realized than ever now that it must ever be deplored - breaks a tender tie of regard, and mournfully points the moral Of the evanescence of life. The grand figures with which we have been fa miliar are vanishing, one by one. The institutions and the ways of our personal world are breaking up around us. New men and new ideas and interests are thrusting aside the broken fragments of our past. The shadows darken around us.
