The address
as follows:
“Ephaphroditus, my brother, and
bellow soldier, was nigh unto death
not regarding his life.” So writes
St.' Paul in his letter to the Philli-
pian,s. These words tell us all'that
we know of this man; they are few,
yet how expressive! "He "was nigh
unto death, not regarding bis life.”
That: last phrase is .particularly, in
teresting for it means literally*
"gambling with his life. Paul had
closely observed his Roman guard
during the long hours of imprison
ment. He had watched them play
at dice, and had seen the risks they
took 'with their money in so reckless
a manner. And he had been re
minded of "Ephaphroditus.’’ That
was the kind of thing he had done,
He had taken great risks, he had
flung caution to the winds—-but not
for money, the stake was life itself.
He had deliberately gambled with
his life. Is not that what every
man was- doing who went out at the
call of duty during those four
rible years? went out [o face

these men took tremendous risks.
They were ready to give all that
they had in the great cau?e; they
staked life itself on their brave ad
venture. And some of them died
gloriously. We are gathered at this
place to stand with bowed head to
pay them the homage of our rever
ence and our love. We cannot give
adequate expression to our feeling
at such a time, but our silence is
eloquent of thoughts of which the
human voice cannot utter. 'They
