"Craig turned to look and put out his great arm over the President's head as though to push back the car. "Oh. my God!' he cried, as his arm shot out. Then came, the crash." Thus died a strong and brave man, his last word a prayer for strength to work a miracle, his last thought not cf himself, but of him whose safety it was his duty to guard. William Craig was well known in Chica go, where the aged mother whose stay and pride he wkb now mourns her son. That she bore a man-child who van faithful unto dalh, though the thought assuage not her grief, is a crown of honor to her gray hairs. Gifted with great physical strength and proficient in a'l manly ixorci'ef, William Craig was as modest and gentle as lie was brave and strong. His life had proved the truth of the poet's line: The bravest are the tenderest. The loving are the daring. Honored by the government of his native land for gallantry in battle, he nerved the government of bis adopted count rv with equal and unwavering fidelity. Whether battling with savages iti the Soudan or bringing outlaws to justice in America, he wan ever courageous and efficient. Chosen to gu ird tho tiation'achief magis trate, he did in the effort, to save him fiom danger, and is mourned as a personal friend bv earth's most powerful ruler, respected by all manly m"n,adiii;rd bv ardent youth, and loved by little children.
