Excerpt from Samuel W. Pennypacker: An Address Delivered Before the Philobiblon Club, October 26, 1916

This meeting is commemorative of Samuel W. Pennypacker, your late president. Although not a member of your Club, I have been invited to deliver the Memorial Address, mainly, I suppose, because of my long knowledge of him in the profession of the law, and particularly because during the four years of his Governorship I stood in closer official relationship to him than any other member of his cabinet.

I knew him well; I respected him truly; I honored him faithfully. I honored and respected him to the end of his life. I shall honor and respect his memory to the end of my own.

Excerpt from Samuel W. Pennypacker: An Address Delivered Before the Philobiblon Club, October 26, 1916

Gentlemen of the Philobiblon Club:

This meeting is commemorative of Samuel W. Pennypacker, your late president. Although not a member of your Club, I have been invited to deliver the Memorial Address, mainly, I suppose, because of my long knowledge of him in the profession of the law, and particularly because during the four years of his Governorship I stood in closer official relationship to him than any other member of his cabinet.

I knew him well; I respected him truly; I honored him faithfully. I honored and respected him to the end of his life. I shall honor and respect his memory to the end of my own.

It cannot be expected that I should give you a complete or well-finished portrait. It would require a volume to do that, and involve at least a year's preparation. He died less than sixty days ago, and our hearts still throb with a sense of personal loss, and our eyes are still dim with emotion. He had so many sides to his character, and he was conspicuous in so many fields of human endeavor that to follow him throughout his varied career would be impracticable on an occasion such as this.
