San Jose, March 3rd, 1905. Dear Doctor Jordan:- Thanks for your courteous note just received. It was not that I shrank from the duty or the responsibility, but that I wished to open the way for any other arrangement you might think well to make. Of course, I shall lay aside the sermon I purposed to give, and simply try to enter into sympathy with the occasion, and to pay such a tribute to the memory of Mrs. Stanford as may come from one outside of her circle of special friends. I shall try to utter in a modest way the voice of the general public. I shall not require much time, and if it is desired that you, or any other, shall speak, I shall not be in the way. With high regard and all good wishes, I am, Sincerely yours, John W Dinsmore

Whereas: In the fulfillment of the order of events in human affairs, planned and worked out by a Divine hand, Mrs. Jane Lathrop Stanford has departed this life, and Whereas, We, the Board of Education of the city of San Jose, recognize that the cause of education has lost one of its most efficient workers, and Whereas, We bow our heads in the greatest respect to a life so devoted, to a work so well done; and we bless the Providence that gave to our co-worker such a fullness of days in which to perform the task which she set for herself, and Whereas: We congratulate the educational world upon not only a life of devotion, but upon the results of that devotions, Therefore, be it: Resolved that we extend to her relatives and those friends near to her in life's trials our heartfelt sympathy in this our common loss.
