THE LATE MR. P. H. HOLYOAK.
(Continued from Page 5)
We have thought for a little about life and its meaning, now let us consider what a man can do among his fellow men. "A man”- said Isaiah "shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and as a covert from the tempest, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary. land:" A man; that is, shall be both a shelter and a fountain of force to his fellows.
A Fountain of Force.
I think we may truly say of Percy Hobson Holyoak that he was. both a fountain of force and a shelter. He was a man with a big spirit and a big kindly con- stant heart. A man of high ideals and wide sympathies. He was an outstanding character among Ug, His positions on the Coun cils, his. chairmanship över a long period of the Chamber of Commerce, of the Alice Mem orial Hospital, as President of the Hongkong. Boy Scouts Asso ciation, as Vice-Chairman of the Y.M.C.A.. all attest to this. He i was a man who loved his home and yet did not spare himself in public service with all its heavy demands. A man of no half measures, who always saw through. to the end what he undertook,
Those who knew him. na Jender of English Freemasonry in this Colony can testify to the high ideals for which he stood: he re- garded his position 08 District. Grand Master as n' sacred trust and never tired of keeping before rim these high ideals of brother, hood and charity for which Masonry stands.

hope the Masonic service started this year will be kept up
to his memory. He was a man of integrity: a man much beloved..
"Steel true, blade straight, "The great artifeer made my
mate,"
could be said of him.
And he was a man of grit and determination. You had only to look into those eyes of his to know that. IIe met with his share of reverses as well as success,. but he was never besten, for be fore a man can be beaten at his task he must be beaten in his own soul, and this he never was And to anyone who knew him in. the deeper side of his nature fi was apparent on whom he pu his trust. It was the Most High. Man goeth forth to his work and to his labour until the even- ing, but he who doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
"How they ring out! I hope there will be trumpets in Heaven, Burne Jones said. That is whet he wanted at Browning's funeral. The trumpet, clangorous, trium- phant.
And to Percy Hobson Holyoak we may truly apply those words which Browning applied to him. self:
"One, who never turned his back, but marched straight forward,
"Never doubted clouds would
break;
"Never dreamed, though right were warated, wrong would triumph;
"Held, we fall to rise, ari baffled to fight better: "Sleep, to wake."
