John Munro
168
In
his
CURRICULUM
VITAE
he
wrote
these
words:
'As
I
look
back
upon
my
life
I
call
indeed
say
with
the
Holy
Scriptures
that
it
has
been
"labour
and
sorrow."
But
I
have
also
to
thank
the
Lord
that
He
has
given
me
His
blessing
in
my
calling
and
in
my
family,
and
has
bestowed
more
good
upon
me
than
I
have
known
how
to
ask
of
Him.
The
Lord
has
helped
hitherto;
He
will
help
yet
further.'
Reis
was
buried
in
the
cemetery
of
Friedrichsdorff,
and
in
1878,
after
the
introduction
of
the
speaking
telephone,
the
members
of
the
Physical
Society
of
Frankfort
erected
over
his
grave
an
obelisk
of
red
sandstone
bearing
a
medallion
portrait.
