Aaron
Martin Crane
(1839-1914)
|
Born at Glover, VT., in 1839. Of his early life spent on a farm in his
native town wrote a surviving comrade of his boyhood, and his life-long friend:
"I
have always had for him," he says, "a most sincere admiration, in boyhood, in
middle life, and in old age. I well remember so many of his wise sayings. ...
In boyhood, he often said to me, 'Water will find its level and so shall we. We
shall find a place equal to our worth.' . . . He lived for the good he could
do. I firmly think his influence for good will continue with greater power in
both worlds." It will be seen that
though the lad's favorite saying is common, yet to use it with such a sense of
corresponding truth in the affairs of men is not common in the case of a
stripling. He was in
the US army until 1865. Then was Assessor of Internal Revenue until that office
was abolished by law in 1873. He used often to say that he never liked the work
because "it was hunting the bad." Until 1884 he continued as
a special agent in charge at St. Louis, Cincinnati, Chicago and San Francisco.
Mr. Crane's marriage, which took place in
1865, was one of the best proofs that true unions are possible.
His lectures and writings perhaps styled the
beginning of the wave of new thought which swept the world.
A search after
ultimate truth; the divine perfection inherent in man and in all creation
(1910)
Right and wrong thinking, and their results; the undreamed-of possibilities
which man may achieve through his own mental control (1905)
Christian
science : a brief answer to the question, What is it? (18--?])
