Obituary.
JOHN W. WETHERELL, 744.
Colonel John W. Wetherell, of the
Class of Forty-Four, died at his home
in Worcester, Mass., on Saturday, Oct.
2, of Brights disease. He had suffered
many years from this trouble and for
three months before his death was un-
able to leave his bed. He leaves a
widow. '
Colonel Wetherell was born in Ox-
ford, Mass., in 1820. His preparation
for college was at Leicester Academy
and he entered Yale at the age of twen-
ty. After graduating from Yale in 1844
he studied in the Harvard Law School
and was admitted to the Massachusetts
bar in 1846. For nearly thirty years he
practiced law in Worcester. When
John Andrew, called the “war gover-
nor,” was filling the executive chair in
Massachusetts, he appointed Mr. Weth-
erell to his staff, with the rank of colo-
nel. In this position he was of invalua-
ble service to Governor Andrew in look-
ing after the welfare of the state troops
at the front and in the selection of offi-
cers.

The Family’s Point of View.
oe-.S- GF._- FG
F you are thirty-five years old and are in good health, and are earning $100
a month, your life, on which this earning depends, is worth $22,700 in
cash to-day to your family.
If you die they lose the $100 a month, the
equivalent of which is the $22,700. The cash value of your life to them
is therefore $22,700. They lose that if you die. |
You have made your family dependent on you: dependent on that $100 a
month, You have put them at the risk of losing # by losing you.
If you had a piece of property which was bringing you in $100 a month
and it stood a chance of being destroyed and so cutting off your income,
you would not rest until you had taken enough of that $100 a month and
‘nsured yourself against the loss of it.
You would consider that you had not
done your duty by yourself until you had so protected yourself effectually.
Your life is just such a'piece of property to your family: you have made
itso. They need just that same effectual protection against its loss which
may come any day.
And they cannot protect themselves.
They rely on
you for that as much as they do for the $100 a month itself. They need
protection against that loss even more than you need protection against the
loss of your property. But they cannot have it unless you give it to them.
You have exposed them to the loss:
you have made them dependent on
you: you alone can protect them in their dependence.
THE CONNECTICUT MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
Makes its plans from the family’s point of view: to give them the most
absolute protection, at the least cost to you and with perfect equity to both,
It will be glad to serve you and your family in this great matter.

DANIEL H. WELLS, Actuary.
ing a year in General Thomas Russell’s
military school in New Haven entered
the Yale Divinity School, teaching and
studying at the same time, and gradu-
ating in 1851. He was ordained pastor
of the Second Congregational Church
in Rockville in 1853, remaining with
wit that church until 1857, when ill
health made it necessary for him to re-
sign. He came to Hartford and for
ten years was district secretary of the
American Tract Society of Boston, and
was afterwards state misisonary for the
Connecticut Home Missionary Society.
In 1872 he was appointed district secre-
tary of the American Tract Society of
New York and had been actively en-
gaged in the service for nearly twenty-
five years, gaining an extensive ac-
quaintance with Congregational minis-
ters in Connecticut and Massachusetts.
Mr. Bullard was married in 1852 to
Susan Augusta Spencer of Deep River,
who died in 1896. Three of their six
children survive, Mrs. Alice B. Skeele,
wife of the Rev. Arthur T. Skeele of
Wellington, O.; Anna W. Bullard and
Herbert S. Bullard of Hartford. He
leaves a brother, Edward P. Bullard,
and a sister, Catherine Bullard, both of
Bridgeport.

J. Hammond Trumbull, ’42.
(Henry Clay Trumbullin Sunday School Times.)
A little more than twenty years ago
I was in my brother’s house when he
received a letter from George Bancroft,
the historian, accompanying a set of
the latest edition of “History of the
United States.” Mr. Bancroft said, in
substance, that although he was aware
that my brother had the earlier edi-
tions in his library, he wished to send
him this later one also, for, as he had
been indebted to him for important
help in its writing at every stage, he
felt that it was no more than right that
he should send him each edition as
it appeared, since he had had so much
to do with its writing and with its re-
vision. This might have led me to
think that United States history was
his peculiar line of research; but there
were other facts that showed me how
much he did in other spheres.
Not far from the same time there
came a letter from Professor Asa Gray,
the botanist of Harvard, saying that he
had been invited by the British Asso-
ciation to read a paper on the indigen-
ous flora of the United States, at its
approaching meetng in Toronto.
