308 MISCELLANEOUS NOTES. 
This sketch cannot be complete without a reference to the 
Bishop’s catholicity of spirit. Many examples might be cited of his 
friendship with men, who, like myself, belong to the ‘ Noncon- 
formist’ wing of the great Christian Church, and of his sympathy with 
their religious work ; and his beautiful hymns are prized and used in 
all denominations. 
A volume of Dr. How’s sermons, entitled ‘The Knowledge of 
God,’ was published in 1892, with an excellent portrait, in the 
interesting ‘ Preachers of the Age’ series. 
The portrait which accompanies this paper is from a photograph i 
taken in London, and lent by the Bishop’s son, the Rev. H. Walsham 
How, Vicar of Mirfield, by whom the autographs have also kindly 
been supplied. 
What I have written has been from a full heart, and the reverent 
memory of a life almost ideally rounded and harmonious through- 
out—complete in strength and beauty, sweetness and charm, potent 
in all directions in its purifying and ennobling influence.
