"The Reverend A. M. Burgess' body lies in one of the cemeteries of this city (Grand Rapids, Mich.) On looking over the Parish Register, we find that out of the long list of Rectors, his record of work is the best in every way, and none of our predecessors are quite as dear to the hearts of those parishioners who remain with us as was he. They say it was an in- spiration to hear him say, in his sermons and instruc- tions, 'The Master.' " The Rev. Chas. Donahue.


COOK, Sidney Hebberd. Died March 28, 1890. Deacon by Bishop Huntington, April 5, 1884 ; Priest by Bishop Huntington, March 5, 1885. Camden, N. Y., to November, 1886; Trinity Church, Bingham- ton, N. Y., to death.


"The Parish of Trinity Church, Binghamton, and the Reverend Sidney Hebberd Cook, its youthful and attractive minister, may be said to have begun a sin- gularly promising career together. In an interview with him a very few days before he died I was im- pressed by his tranquility and maturity of mind, the courageous religious resignation, with which he was able to face the alternative of early death or a pro- tracted infirmity, the clearness of his faith, and his superiority to complaint and fear." Bishop Hunting- ton.


DONOHUE, Charles. Died February 1, 1910. Rector of Holy Trinity Church, Manistee, Mich., and Secretary of the Diocesan Convention, at the age of 41 years. On Friday evening, January 28th, 1910, he was stricken with an illness which proved to be appendi- citis. A surgical operation was promptly decided 1

upon, but without relief. On Tuesday evening, Feb- ruary Ist, he quietly passed unto Paradise, the Bishop of the Diocese, the Rt. Rev. Dr. McCormick, being with him at the time, together with his brother and sister, of Grand Rapids, and his aged mother, who made her home with him. On the following morn- ing Bishop McCormick held a celebration of the Holy Communion, and at 4 p. m. a largely attended public service was held by the Bishop in the Methodist house of worship, which was kindly offered for the purpose, as the repairs upon the recently injured parish church, due to fire, were not yet completed. Shortly after this service the casket was taken to Grand Rapids and the burial service held the day fol- lowing at Saint Paul's church, where Rev. Mr. Dono- hue had been rector for nine years previous to his ac- ceptance of the work at Manistee, about a year before. A large number of diocesan clergy were present at the funeral and the capacity of the church was overtaxed. A delegation of eleven parishioners were present from Manistee, including the vestry, who attended in a body. These vestrymen, with the vestry of Saint Paul's, Grand Rapids, were the honorary pall bearers, the active pall bearers being six of the diocesan clergy. The burial was in Greenwood cemetery, Grand Rapids, where the service was taken by Bishop Mc Cormick and Dean Peters, of the pro-Cathedral, who also had taken the full service at the church. The Rev. Mr. Donohue had during his diaconate cared for a group of missions near Syracuse, N. Y. Then for four years he was rector of Grace Church, Waverly, N. Y. Following this he was for a period of five years assistant rector of Saint Mary's Church, Brooklyn, N. Y., from which place he went to Grand Rapids, as rec- tor of Saint Paul's, in 1900. He was, at the time of his death, a member of the executive committee of the Fifth Department Missionary Council.
