Dr. James B.Shaw: "We loved Mr. Pratt and lament him because of his Christian courtesy. He was a gentleman of the old school fast dying out. Such natural grace, such quiet dignity; such forgetfulness of self and thoughtfulness of others; such unaffected modesty and winning gentleness we do not soon expect to find again. But if we have sustained a loss by the sudden departure of our father Pratt, Christ has gained thereby."
