Excerpt from The McMaster University Monthly, Vol. 5: June, '95 to May, '96
Mrs. Langford. She is a true and devoted wife whose sky is never dim, whose heart is ever buoyant with hope. Their home life is simple and sweet and strong. Mr. Langford is an author of no men standing. In The Examiner, The Sunday School Tunes and The Chicago Standard, the products of his pen are always welcomed. As a fellow-student I cannot refrain from paying a tribute also to the faithful and eflicient service which og. Has rendered to our own college magazine. As a preacher Mr. Lang ford is strong, clear and simple in style. His utterance is graced by delicate and appropriate imagery, feeling and pathos. He is a speaker of deep conviction and over-mastering purpose. As a Christian his life speaks for itself. The man who with a family to support and educate, and the duty of preaching every Sun day, can do what has done knows what Paul meant when he said I press. As a friend he is constant and true. The future of such a man cannot be other than bright in the best sense. Go on, we are listening for your voice. We are waiting for your footsteps, at the head of your calling.
