of my existence/' That problem Mr. Madien solved.

*' Give me the book/' said the dying Sir Walter ScoU. '' What
book/' was the reply. "There is but one Book," answered Sir
Walter, and his attendant handed him the Bible. Of this Book
Mr. Machen was a diligent and faithful student and learned the
lesson of this life and of that wfaidi is to come.

I was associated with him for a number of years in the session
of our church and knew his modest and unswerving piety, his
wise counsel, his forgiving judgment of the erring and his large
and unostentatious benevolence.

And so it hai^)ened one Sabbath noon, with the music of the
<»-gan and the song of the wcnrshippers and the benediction of the
service lingering with him, he passed by a painless transition from
his church on earth to the General Assembly and Church of the
First Bom in Heaven. Honoured Hfe; blessed death.



MR. D. K. ESTE FISHER

May it please Your Honours:

The death of Mr. Machen was a real sorrow to me, for it seemed
to break one more of the &st parting links which connected my
deceased &ther with the present

In early manhood they were companions and intimate friends,
and their friendship, which even took them into foreign lands
together, continued through life and was foimded on mutual
confidence and respect. I have of t^i heard my &ther refer to
this intimacy and to the great pleasure which he and Mr. Machen
enjojred as }roung men, and the expedition they made together to
Europe, when both were fresh and keen for knowledge and inno-
cent profitable amusement. It was chiefly fromhearing my father
recount their experiences upon this occasion, full of mirth and
entertainment for both of them, and from hearing my &ther
speak of him, from time to time, in other connections, that I
kaew Mr. Madien, for so great was the disparity of our ages that
my personal contact with him was not frequent. Nevertheless,
I never met him without e3q)eriencing the kindness which the

son of his early friend might expect and which a man of Mr.
Machen's character always extends to a yomiger member of the
Bar, nor without recognizing the humour in. his make-up. He
seemed ever bright and amusing, as if he loved fun.

But it is chiefly, perhaps, with his qualities as a member of
our profession that we are concerned to-day and with the great
loss which the members of the Bar have sustained in his death,
and the example he has left behind him for the guidance of younger
men.

As I have said, there was a great disparity between his age and
mine. He was more than thirty*thiee years of age ^en I was
bom— he belonged to an older generation; and necessarily my
professbnal contact with him was not frequent. But I deem it
one of the privil^es I had, as a member of this Bar, that I did
come in contact with him in a professional way, on quite a num-
ber of occasions, and had the opportunity to apprehend in him the
thoroughness and soundness and force which are necessary to the
make-up of a lawyer of a grade worthy of the tribute of a q[)ecial
memorial meeting of the Bench and Bar, to which we so easily
recognize that the memory of Mr. Machen is entitled.

I remember that my first impression in hearing him in Court in
the argument of a case was one of surprise. So modest did he
seem in his manner that I did not realize what great force and
learning he had until he warmed iq> in the progress of his case,
in^en the vigour and accuracy of his mind displayed itself; and
ever afterwards I knew that when Mr. Machen aiq)eared in a
case, it was as a master of his profession and of his case. He
never &iled to get out of a case all there was in it. He wasmade
for the profession — ^he was a constant student of the law, and his
knowledge of it was so thorough and accurate that I doubt
whether there ^^as another member of the Bar of his time who
was more profoundly versed in its principles than he, or who
knew better how to apply them. And I gained this impresaon
of him not only from hearing him argue cases in which I had no
special interest, but in cases in which I or members of my firm
took an active part, and in business interviews with him at his
office. His acumen and thoroughness were remarkable, and any
adversary, no matter how high his standing at the Bar, had rea-

son to be apprehensive whep Mr. Machen was on the other side,
for if anything was overlooked, he would be sure to be aware of
it, and, if proper, take advantage of it. It was &tal to make a
mistake with Mr. Machen on the other side. Nothing escaped
him. Thoroughness was one of his marked characteristics and
this, with the natural keenness and power of his mind, had much
to do with the height to which he attained in his profession, and
made him ever ready to handle any kind of legal proposition or
situation, and apparently gave him great confidence in Intimate
litigation. His experience in the trial of cases was very great
and extended to l^^al questions of every kind as a glance through
the Maryland reports and the dockets of these Courts will show,
and his mind seemed to delight in the most difficult branches of
the law and to deal with them with a &cility which was admirable.

Mr. Machen was a student not alone of the law; and the terms
in which he expressed himself attested his familiarity with general
literature and the cultivation of his mind. I remember especially
one occasion in this Court on which he made a short address
which was a luminous model of perfect expression of thought and
feeling, such a? is attained only by the reading of classical litera-
ture. And his style in speaking always, as I remember it, bore
the evidences of general cultivation.

If I could fed, at the end of my professional career, that I had
attained anywhere near the position which he occupies at the
Bar, I should indeed fed that I had reason to be satisfied, and his
career at the Bar may well be followed as an example by any
man who aspires to success and a respected and honourable
career. I thank your Honours for permitting me to say these
few words which express so inadequatdy my fedings and respect
for my Other's early friend.



RESPONSE OF JUDGE SOPER

The extraordinary career of Mr. Machen seems to give added
solemnity to this solemn occasion. Reflection upon the very
great length of his professional life, the high quality and vast
amount of the legal work whidi he performed in many matters of

grave oonoem seems to contribute to the very sofidity of our re-
q>ect for his memory, and to add weight and substance to thb
Bieeting in his honour. The whok sjphn of man's life does not
(rften cxceedf if it equals, sixty-five years in duration. But Mr.
Machen spent more than sizty-siz years in the study of the law,
and more than sixty-two years as an active practiang lawyer in
the Courts of Maryland. For this venerable man we rejoice
that life was so long, success was so ripe, and that enjoyment of
the pleasures of the intellect enriched with the wisdom of the
ages was vouchsafed until the end.

Mr. Machen was not only a strong man: he was a wise man.
He was vigorous in mind as wdl as in body. He had not cmly
the power and endurance to stand the nervous and {diysical strain
entiukd by the active practice of the law, but he Imd intellec-
tual vigour,and was able to acquire the learning and develop the
legal skin that must characterize the hig^ successful lawyer of
the first grade. Any law3rer who has resolved to devote himself
to the trial of cases and the management of legal business, and
to the study of the sdence of the law, would be proud to adiieve
such a career as brought afiiuence and proq)erity, the highest
professional standing and most important business in the law, to
our deceased brother. His learning, his exhaustive jNresentation
of l^al doctrine in its application to particular fatcts, and his mas-
terful imf olding of the merits of his cases gave him an influence
and sway with the Courts, ^diich was so great that at times the
Courts seemed to desert precedent in order to follow whither the
genius of Mr. Machen led.

It is a source of pride to have membership in a learned pro-
fession. Of late years there has seemed to be an opinion more or
less prevalent that lawyers are to be commended rather for their
capacity for business then for their learning. This could not be
said of Mr. Machen. He was not only learned in the law, but he
was a student of classical literature and of ancient tongues of
very generous and very imusual attainments. His fine library
evidences the scope of his varied intdlectual interests. His career
might indeed serve as a model for the imitaticm of the scholarly
lawyer, for there has been in recent times no other man of sudi
literary attainments and culture.

SESSIONAL MEMORIAL 371

Let the memorial prqxured by the gentlemen of the Bar be
therefore leceived, let it be spread upon the pennanent records of
the Court in perpetuation of his memory, and in his honour let
the Court now stand adjourned.

Early in the year 1916, the Session of the Franklin Street
Presbyterian Church adopted the following minute, which
was read from the pulpit on Sunday, ^ril 23, 1916, at the
morning service:

Sessional Memokial to Ms. Akthus W. Machen.
Died December 19, 1915.

"When the bowl of life is fiUed to the overflow,and the end has
come to a professional career marked by great success, — ^when the
end comes quietly without a jar or pain, and it happens on a day
set apart as a day of rest, and at a moment when the soul of man
has been engaged in the act of public worship, — ^we may well
indulge the wish that our last end should be Uke his." These
words, taken from the "memorial minute" adq>ted by his fellow
members of the Baltim<»'e Bar, fittingly express the feelings of
his associates of the session, when they heard on that beautiful
Sabbath day in December that Mr. Arthyr W. Machen was dead*

This fine old saint had gone from his accustomed place in the
house of God, with whose activities and beneficent influences his
Hfe had so long been associated, to his home; and in a moment,
in the twinkling of an eye, the summons came, and without pain
or suffering he went into the presentee of the King of Glory, a
fitting end of a noble and beautiful life.

The Session, which will long have occasion to rememb^ the
year 1915 (for it .has pleased the Head of the Church to bereave
us of no less than foiu: of our associates in this period), desires to
place on record some expression of its loss in the departure of this
beloved memb^ of our body.

Mr. Arthur W. Machen was bom in the dty of Washington on
the 20th of July 1827; and after the completion of his collate
and professional studies, he came to Baltimore and was admitted
to the bar in the year 1853, His value as a citizen, and his re-

markable success in his chosen profession, are parts of thehistOTy
of our dty; but it is our duty and privilege to place on our min-
utes some estimate of his service to the Church of Cfarist, and
some tribute to the blessed influence of his fellowship which we
have enjoyed for many 3rears.

Mr. Madien joined Uie Franklin Street Church on i»ofes8ion
of fadth in 1873. He was elected a trustee of the congregation
in 1880, and served with conspicuous fiddity until his death. On
June 18th, 1893, he was ordained and installed elder of the con-
gregation, and it was in this responsible position that his great
aUlities were so lib»:ally bestowed upon the church of his choice.

Every life has two ^es. There is the side of tangible and
visible services, and there is also the side of intangible influence;
the one may be recorded in deeds and services of a visible kind,
the other finds expression in the love, esteem and pious memories
of those i^riio have en jojred intimate conununion with personality.

Mr. Machen's visible services to his church and session were
many and varied. He was a man of conspicuous fidelity to his
duties; a regular attendant at the services of the sanctuary, a
Uberal and discriminating supporter of the doctrines, policies, and
benevolent enterprises of Uie Presbyterian Church. His con-
victions were strong and constant, reinforced by de^ learning,
and made beautiful by genuine piety and Christian graces. He
was wise in counsel, of surpassing capacity for friendship, and
excelled us all in his unfaltering foith and imbroken hopefulness.
Time dealt lightly with his spirit, and as the years passed over
him his youthfulness seemed to increase. In the years following
the lamented death of Dr. Murkland, when the church passed
through great vicissitude and discouragement, his unfailing faith
and cheerfuhiess were rare blessings to his associates. The pres-
ent pastor can never forget the impression made upon his mind
by a letter of Mr. Machen's when he was debating the question
of coming to Baltimore; and in the grave problems of settlement
here, in the unfolding of a new life of opportunity and in the trans-
formation of the present congregation, Mr. Madien's love, sym-
pathy, patience, and imconquerable hopefulness have left indelible
impressions. The memory of his beautiful life will r^nain an
unmixed blessing to us aU, while time shall last. His generous
heart responded eagerly to all kinds of need; his service was un-



Digitized by VjOOQIC



SESSIONAL MEMORIAL 373

forced and unostentatious, and he always did the right thing.
He had the strong man's distaste for publicity^ and believed, and
righdy too, that the good life was its own vindication. But here
we pass from visible to invisible things, to estimate that rare
power of personality, ^ose results cannot be tabulated, but
^ose reality was known and felt by all who enjoyed the privilege
of intimacy with him. He had a mind of natural loftiness and
simpUdty, a spirit that instinctively avoided evil; in &ct his
whole life and service made it easier to believe in the Christian
rehgion. We who knew and served with hhn cotdd say truly that
he was a man of God. We looked upon his life and glorified God
in him.

We cannot attempt to express the sense of loss to this church
and congregation. In &ct, with some of us, it seems almost im-
possible to go on without him. Such men as he are rare in any
age, and our loss at this time is, and must remain in part, with-
out compensation.

But we rejoice in the memory of his fellowship and example,
and we are persuaded that his gmdous influence will go on in
the congregation, and that the Great Head of the Church who had
wiser plans for him in the Father's House, will not fail to raise
up others who can take up and carry on the work.

like Enoch of old, he walked with God, and was not, for God
took him. There is always something beautiful in the end of
such a life as his. After eighty-nine years of consist^it pilgrim-
age, he came to the shining gates with unabated strength, and
undiminished zeal. Ws swift and paroless going was characteris-
tic of the mercy which had followed him all his days, the fruition
of a faith which in all the vidsdtudes of a long and useful life
had made him, —

One idu) never turned his back but maicfaed bretst forward,

Never doubted clouds would break.
Never dreamed, thou^ light were wintted, wrong would tiiunq)h,
Held we lall to rise, are baffled to fig^t better,
Sleep to wake.

We are bereaved in his departture, for we shall not soon see
his like again; but we do not begrudge him his rest. ''Well done,
thou good and foithf ul sarant, enter into the joy of thy Lord.''
