Rev. Mr. Oberly delivered a very eloquent, earnest and appropriate address, on the life and great work of Roth giving an exhibit of of the high regard in which he was held by, Dr. Passavant and many other prominent scholars and theologians in America; also his labor, not only for the church, but for the cause of education, the establishment of Thiel college, the building of a great church and theological school in Chicago with a branch in Milwaukee, the promoting of hospitals in Chicago and Pittsburg and many other good works that did honor to his name, and gave us some knowledge of his desire to labor for the benefit of bis fellow men and his ability to perform it. There was one honor that was not brought out or mentioned, in that Dr.

Roth was once chaplain of the United States Senate, Being in the city of Washington, be was introduced to Senator Ingalla, president; of the Senate, who invited the Doctor to act as chaplain for that day, which he did to the great satisfaction of the senators.
