Obituary.
ISRAEL HOPKINS HARRIS, 746.
Israel Hopkins Harris, ’46, died at
his home in Waynesville, Ohio, Oct.
17, 1897. He was the son of James
Harris, a native of Vermont, and Re-
becca Clark Jennings, a native of New
Jersey. He entered the Class of Forty-
Six at the beginning of Junior year.
On graduation he succeeded to his
father’s business of private banker at
Waynesville, and was an honorable and
successful business man. His _ tastes
were scientific and he pursued the
studies of geology, mineralogy, con-
chology and anthropology with zeal and
success.
He is said to have had the finest
private collections illustrating these
sciences in America. They have mostly
been presented to the Smithsonian In-
stitute, with a provision that they
should be kept separate under the name
of “The I. H. Harris Collection.” The
collection is especially remarkable for
its cabinet of fresh water pearls. He
was known as the father of pearl hunt-
ing in the Miamis, and for many years
purchased almost the entire product of
the two Miamis. Some of these pearls,
from their rare coloring, are unique
and almost priceless.
He married in 1848, Esther Ann,
daughter of Jarvis Stokes, of Lytle, O.,
who died in 1849, leaving one child
who survived her but six months.
Three years later he married Caroline
E. Bunnell, daughter of Merritt Bun-
nell; she died in 1873. One daughter,
Mrs. Laura Harris Mosher, is living
Mr. Harris married for the third time,
Edith, daughter of Nathan N. Mosher,
in 1874, who survives him with one
child, Minnie Mildred.
The above facts are taken from an
extended sketch published in the April
1898, number (Vol. I, No. 2), of the
“Old Northwest” Genealogical Quar-
terly, Columbus, O.
HENRY C. CROUCH, 779.
* Dr. Henry C. Crouch died on April
20, 1898, of consumption, brought on
by the grip which he had in a severe
form several years ago.
Dr. Crouch was born in Galena, IIl.,
on March 11, 1858, and the following
year his family removed to Kingston,
N. Y., where they still reside. He pre-
“oe
pared for College at the Kingston
Academy, and was admitted to the Class
of Seventy-Nine at Yale. He grad-
uated with his class in 1879, and shortly
afterward took a position as teacher in
the Kingston Academy, which position
he retained until 1883. In 1882 he
passed the necessary examinations, and
received the degree of M.A. from Yale.
In 1883 he went to Europe to study
medicine, going first to Strasburg, and
afterward to Berlin. His health soon
began to fail, and, although he had not
yet completed his studies, he decided
to accept the position of United States
consul at Milan, which was offered him
by the Cleveland administration. While
at Milan, pulmonary consumption de-
veloped, and he was obliged to spend
most of his time in the mountains. . His
term as consul expired in 1890, and he
then went to Giessen, where he passed
the necessary examinations, and re-
ceived the degree of M.D. from the
University there, returning to Colorado
in 1891. He commenced the practice
of medicine at Colorado Springs, but in
1894 removed to Denver, and in 1895
was appointed bacteriologist for the
Denver Board of Health. He con-
tinued his practice, confining his atten-
tion to diseases of the stomach. In
June, 1895, he married Miss Maia Chap-
man of Council Bluffs. In the Winter
of that year he contracted’ the grip,
which became chronic, and constant re-
curring attacks so weakened him that
consumption, from which he had par-
tially recovered, made rapid progress,
and he died April 2oth, 1898. He leaves
a wife, but no children.
While in Germany, he devoted a great
deal of his attention to bacteriology,
and his work upon the Denver Board
of Health, particularly his methods of
staining and photographing, received
considerable attention from physicians.
His sickness interfered very much with
his work.
ELLSWORTH DAGGET WHITING, 794.
The death of Ellsworth Dagget Whit-
ing occurred at Aurora, Ill., April 26th,
after a severe attack of typhoid fever.
After graduating at Yale, Mr. Whiting
entered the Rush Medical College of
Chicago, graduating last Spring. Dur-
ing the course he was elected Editor-
in-Chief of the College publication

honors, as a result of which he was

Go S: & OW,
laria,’ was published in many of the
leading medical periodicals of the coun-
try. His health, never robust, was
somewhat broken by hard application
in the professional school, and in con-
sequence he did not rally from his ill-
ness.
During his career at Yale, he had
the respect of the members of his class
and his disposition won for him the
love of all. The democracy, cordiality
and scholarly characteristics, a rare
combination in one man, gave splendid
promise for the future and in his early
death there is not onl~ a loss to Ninety-
Four, but also to Yale.
Mr. Whiting was born at Bellevue,
Iowa, July 21st, 1869, and prepared for
Yale at Beloit Academy. He entered
Ninety-Three in the Fall of ’89, but was
compelled to leave on account of sick-
ness. In the Fall of ’92 he entered
Ninety-Four.
JAMES BARNETT GOODWILLIE, 794 S.
The death of James Barnett Good-
willie, from pneumonia, occurred at
Columbus, O., on April 30. He was
born in Cleveland, December 25, 1873,
and was the son of Thomas Goodwillie,
of the Standard Oil Co., and the grand-
son of General and Mrs. James Bar-
nett. He _ received his preliminary
education at the University School,
Cleveland and entered the Sheffield
Scientific School with the Class of
Ninety-Four. He was a member of
Berzelius. After graduation at Yale, he
studied for a year at the Case School —
of Applied Science, Cleveland, and be-
came a chemist for the Johnson Steel
Works, at Lorain, O., where he re-
mained about a year. An appointment
was offered him as head chemist at
the Buckeye Malleable Iron Co., of
Columbus, which he accepted and held
till his death.
