Excerpt from The Meaning of Truth in History: Being the Creighton Lecture for the Year 1913-14, Delivered Before the University on March 6th, 1914
The occasion on which it is my privilege to address you is one which is associated with the name fa remarkable man. He possessed gifts of intellect and of character which would have made him eminent in careers other than the one he chose for himself. But he held tenaciously the principle, adherence to which is essential for a man who genuinely aspires to accomplish anything lasting. He knew that he must concentrate, and he did so. He lived a dedicated life - dedicated to the service of his God and his Church, as he conceived them. Such were his gifts that his work deeply impressed with the sense of its reality those who were permitted to come near him.
