JACOB L. GREENE, JOHN M. TAYLOR, Vice-Pres. - President. EDWARD M. BUNCE, Sec’y. DANIEL H. WELLS, Actuary. Obituary. HENRY B. TUCKER, ’94. News has just been received of the death of Henry B. Tucker, ’94, only son of H. O’R. Tucker, proprietor of the Troy ‘‘Daily Press.” According to the Associated Press report, Mr. Tuck- er died on Sept. 17, a few miles from Rampart City, Alaska. He had started with a friend to stake out a claim, when they were caught in a snow storm, and losing their way, were obliged to spend the night in the drifts, shelterless. In the morning they attempted to return. to a deserted miner’s cabin, but Mr. _ Tucker, exhausted by exposure, was unable to walk, and his friend left. him to secure aid. He came back with sev- eral miners, only to find Mr. Tucker dead. It is not as yet known whether his body can be brought home for burial. Mr. Tucker entered Yale from Troy and immediately after graduation be- came a reporter on his father’s, paper. He attended the triennial reunion of his class in June, and on July 27 started for the Klondike, intending to work there both as a miner and as a news- paper correspondent. ~ There are few men in Ninety-Four who had such a warm circle of friends. Quiet, unobtrusive and unassuming, yet his sterling qualities were recognized and respected by the whole class. His sudden end and the manner of his death wiJl bring a peculiar sorrow to all who knew him. —____++—___— Sheff. Celebration.
