...article, "An Argument for Cremation" is a very powerful and thrilling story though certainly not an attractive one. A man is found apparently dead by some jolly monks, and in spite of the fact that the body still retains its warmth, they bury it at the abbey.

Without this steady current of classical and antiquarian instruction which he represented at Columbia for nearly fifty years, it is doubtful whether such an impetus would have been given to historical and political...
