Excerpt from Discourse Commemorative of Rev. George Duffield, D.D: Delivered in the Memorial Church, Detroit, Mich., On January 28th, 1883 I thank your friends heartily for permission to add my name to those upon the request, for the printing Of your memorial address in memory of your honored father. I was one Of his loving admirers during his long and useful life in Detroit, served With him as Regent of the University, and was present when he fell, With armor on. The record of such a life ought by all means to be perpetuated, as Well in justice to the dead, Whose good deeds are forgotten by the rushing crowd, as for the hopeful example to honest young men Who desire to serve their generation.
