Foote Mrs. Merle Windsor Avra Smith HYRUM SMITH HARRIS Hearing recounted the activities in which the late Hyrum Smith Harris was the prime mover, causes one to marvel how one so frail in body as Patriarch Harris was, could take care of so many varied interests. School teacher, missionary, mission president, colonization agent, representative to Mexico for his church, lawyer, seminary teacher, stake president, and finally patriarch, were a few of the important positions of trust which Ik held. Injured early in life by a bullet which took effect in his throat, he was seriously handicapped in his physical makeup, but notwithstanding this handicap he was outstanding in achievements in all of the positions named. Old friends at his funeral told of his remarkable courage. Notwithstanding his frail body, they recounted instances in which he displayed rare physical courage, (due time in the city of Mexico he dashed into a crowded street and caught the bridles of a runaway team which was dashing madly down the street. His action in bringing the frantig steeds to a stop no doubt saved the lives of a woman and child who were in the carriage drawn by the , runaways. In the handling of the dangerous situations in which the Latter Day Saint people found themselves in Mexico during the period of civil war following the reign of Dictator Diaz, Brother Harris was revealed as a diplomat, as a student of human nature, and as possessing great moral courage to meet the delicate situations which arose. In this he proved to be a wise counselor to President Romney of the Mexican colonics. He possessed a determination that knew no defeat. This was evidenced by the struggle he made to acquire Dura thorough knowledge of Mexican jurisprudence. ing six long years he studied Mexican law in Mexico City, and in spite of the fact that Mexican authorities seemed determined to pi event him fiom being admitted to prac-tic- e there, he just as determinedly stuck to the task until Jhe achieved the goal. In Sharon he will be long remembered as a teacher and as a spiritual leader and benefactor. To those who knew him in the sundown of his life, meekness and high spirituality seemed his outstanding characteristics. His was truly a great soul wrapped up in a physical body which was a serious handicap to tha1, soul, but no handicap could hold it back or obscure the great mind and heart which it possessed, nor dim its splendid accomplishments. His memory will live long in our hearts.
