...Minister and the Child" is different from anything that has appeared in the Advocate for some time. It is no light story, it is not a criticism or an essay.

Dr. Peabody spoke impressively of the life of the great man at whose funeral many had gathered a few hours before. He said that we must ask ourselves what it was that gave that life its grace and charm. It was the simplicity, the childishness, the purity of mind that marked the greatness of Asa Gray.
