________________________
Allan MacRae's tribute to his mentor:
In a letter to Miss Minna Flentje, Berlin, Germany, dated 7 March 1931, Allan A. MacRae related the following:
"I would have written you long before this but I have been extremely busy this year and up until this week I have written hardly any letters. Dr. Wilson died in October, only about two weeks after the Seminary opened. It was a great loss to us. I am certainly thankful that I came back to America when I did, for otherwise I would not have had any time as his assistant. My year of close association with him, assisting him in his work, was one of the great privileges of my life. He was a wonderful character. He had an extremely brilliant mind. I remember how highly Professor Sachau spoke of him when I visited him there in Berlin. The news of Professor Sachau's death reached here only two or three days before Dr. Wilson himself died. He was in the hospital and they did not like to tell him of the death of his old friend and teacher. Dr. Wilson was only ill about a week. He was blessed with excellent health during most of his life. The end came rather suddenly. I was up with him most of the last night although he never regained consciousness. We miss him greatly here in the seminary, but we are always grateful for the impression of his life and the example of his great accomplishments."
