Century Memorial
Daniel Rogers Noyes had been a member of our Association for nine years when he died at the age of seventy-two [sic: seventy-one]. He was born in Connecticut and trained to business on the basis of a sound general education. Early in his career he identified himself with the throbbing life of the northwest and during nearly half a century was a foremost citizen of St. Paul. A staunch Presbyterian, he won the affections of men in every church and a moving tribute was paid to him by Archbishop Ireland. His activities as a public man embraced ecclesiastical, charitable and educational work of every kind. In all these he displayed the qualities of devoted helpfulness, of strength and unswerving principle, of gentle breeding and business probity which create enduring trust and love in a great community. His bounty was munificent in money and in sympathy: he lives in his works and friendships.
