In this letter to a committee seeking funds for a monument in memory of H. Okma (see 1907.20), Kuyper recalls Okma’s virtues, pointing out that Okma was the first graduate of the Vrije Universiteit to become a member of Parliament. Kuyper also remarks on the exceptional gesture by which Okma offered him his parliamentary seat after the elections of 1905. The memorial, which was designed by Tjeerd Kuipers (1857–1942), one of the foremost architects of Doleantie churches, was presented to the family on May 13, 1909 in the public cemetery in Sneek.
