George Rudolph Freeman, ’85 T. S., died at his home in Meadville, Pa., on Easter Sunday night, April 10. He entered the Theological School in 1882, and graduated with honors three years later.. He was awarded the Hooker Fellowship and spent the next two years in Germany. Soon after his re- turn to America, he was elected Pro- fessor of Old Testament Language and Literature in the Meadville Theologi- cal Seminary, Meadville, Pa. In the congenial atmosphere of the School, he labored with increasing power and ac- ceptance to the day of his death. One of his colleagues writes thus of him, “He could not hide—for he seemed not to know it—a great delicacy and beauty of sympathy, and a spirit lofty with honor.” FREDERICK K. BREMNER, EX-’93.

He was born in Box- ford, Mass., in 1869, and received his early education at Andover, graduating from there in 1889. In the Fall of the same year he came to Yale and remained only during the Freshman year, com- pleting a three year’s course at the Boston University Law School.
