[Continued from 7th page. | For some years after his graduation Mr. Wright was identified with the Mis- sissippi River Improvement Company and other important enterprises in the middle West. His election as Presi- dent of the River and Rail Electric Light and Motor Company brought him to New York, where he remained until obliged to retire from active busi- ness by the malady which ultimately caused his death. He was a man of splendid purposes and indefatigable zeal. His faults are “such as lean to virtue’s side.” There was nothing of meanness or selfishness in him. lLarge-hearted, genial, mag- nanimous, he had always a good word for his classmates and friends, and they for him. He leaves a devoted wife and daughter, who in their deep sorrow will have the sincere sympathy of all who knew him. ROBERT M. GROVE, ’67 S. Robert M. Grove died at his home in Danville, Pa., Sunday, October 24. He was born in Lebanon County, Pa., in 1847, and was graduated from the Sheffield Scientific School in the Class of Sixty-Seven. He was a man of much prominence in business circles: Some years ago he was Treasurer and a Ditec- tor of the Danville Nail Manufacturing Company, and had only recently re- signed from the presidency of the Dan- ville National Bank. He is survived by his wife and two daughters. EDGAR N. SANTOIRE, EX-'97 L. S. Edgar Norman Santoire died at the home of his father in Brooklyn, Fri- day, Nov. 5. He was a member of the Class of Ninety-Seven in the Law School, but owing to a spinal trouble which set in, was obliged to leave col- lege in the May preceding graduation. His funeral was held Monday morning in St. Charles R. C. Church, Brooklyn. —_—_——_—____—- Golf Tournament. A golf tournament for the champion- ship of the University was begun on the New Haven Golf Club’s links, Nov. 10. The following are the drawings of those who madet he best sixteen scores: S. A. Smith, ’99 vs. H. Morse, 1900; F. C. Havemeyer, 1900 vs. J. Reid, Jr., 799; W. Bz Smith, ’o9 vs: .F. H. Sim- mons, ’98; H. R. Winthrop, ’98 vs. J. W. Barney, 1900; L. Coggswell, Jr., OO VS We DD Kountze;- “003 < HF. Hinkle, ’99 vs. R. Crowell, 98; L. M. Williams. “98 vs: -G. L. Tiffany, 2d, 1900; E. Q. Trowbridge, ’99 vs. T. M. Robertson, 1900. There will also be a consolation round. : The result of the tournament will be announced in a later issue. et ee er Distance Running Training. A new feature in the Fall training for the track team is the bi-weekly paper chases that have been instituted this year. A paper chase was held in the Fall of ’95 and two paper chases last‘ year at this time; but te bi- weekly plan is a new one. A cup is to be given this year by E. C. Perkins, ’98, captain of the team, to the man who scores the largest number of points in these runs. The “hound” who finishes first is credited with five points, the one finishing second with three points, the third “hound” with two points and the fourth with one point. The object of these paper chases is to develop the long distance runners and walkers. The short distance run- ners do no work in the Fall. —_————_+94—____—_ An Interesting Relic for Yale. George D. Seymour of New Haven has secured a relic of much value to Yale. It will at some future date come to the University. The relic consists of the double doors of the house of the Rev. Mr. Russell of Branford, Conn., where in 1700 the trustees met for the founding of Yale College. The original house was built in 1675 and bought by Mr. Russell a few years later. It was torn down in 1835, but the doors were kept. Mr. Seymour has secured a plan of the house and the room where the founders met. aac aaah Oe RC A RS a es Co SE eo ek ee ~ MANHATTAN TRUST COMPANY CAPITAL, $1,000,000.
