The passion for writing letters continued to the last. One day in May, 1912, while unable to leave his chair, Dr. Miller dictated letters to a minister who was celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of his pastorate, to a young man who was that day moving into his new home, to a sick friend, and to a man who had just been highly honoured. His last letter – written several weeks before his death – was a message of appreciation to an associate. He was so feeble that he fell asleep several times before the letter was completed, but he would not give up. He had thoroughly learned that: “Just the art of being kind, Is all the great world needs.”
He had learned this lesson from his Friend. And tens of thousands have been the richer because of his desire to pass on what his Friend had taught him.
