Obituary.
THOMAS WHITNEY WATERMAN, EX- 42.
Thomas Whitney Waterman, who was
a member of the Class of Forty-Two
through Freshman, Sophomore and
Junior years, died at his home in Bing-
hamton, N. Y., on December 7th, of
paralysis with which he had been ill for
about ten years. :
Mr. Waterman was born in Bing-
hamton, N. Y., in 1821. After leaving
Yale in 1841, he spent two years in
Europe, and upon his return studied
law. In 1848, he opened a law office in
New York City, where he lived until
1861, when he was called to Bingham-
ton by the ill health of his father. In
1850, Mr. Waterman was married to
a daughter of Rev. Dr. Edward An-
drews. His wife died in 1871, but he
is survived by two daughters.
Mr. Waterman was well known
throughout the country as the author
of many works on law, the most im-
portant of which is his “Law of Cor-
porations” which appeared in 1886.
GEORGE CANNING HILL, 745.
George Canning Hill, ’45, died on
the 14th of November of heart disease,
after a very few hours sickness, at the
City Hospital in Boston, to which place
he was carried from the street where
he had fallen. He was born in Nor-
wich, Conn., Feb. 10, 1825, and held a
distinguished rank in his Class. He was
also one of the editors of the Yale
Literary Magazine. Hon. William Bin-
ney of Providence is his only surviving
associate-editor. Mr. Hill after gradu-
ation spent a few years at the South as
a teacher, and was admitted to the bar
there. Later he was admitted to the
bar at the North, but devoted his life
efforts to literary, biographical and
journalistic work. For more than forty
_ years he was connected with the news-
papers of Boston. For nearly twenty
years he was with the Boston Post, and
was its leading editor fifteen years.
That paper speaks of him “as one of the
best equipped writers on politics, and
political and social economy,” and says
that his death will be a loss to the circle
of friends “who knew the rare beauty
of his character as a man.”
Funeral services were held on Mon-
day following his death at the chapel
of the Hospital, the Rev. Dr. Donald
of Trinity Church officiating. Many ot
his business associates and other friends
were present. The Class of Forty-Five
was represented by Sereno D. Nicker-
son of Boston and C. C. Esty of Fram-
ingham. Mr. Hill left no family. His
wife died a few years ago.
EDWARD OLMSTEAD, 745.
Edward Olmstead of the Class of 1845
died at his home in Wilton, Conn. after
an illness of four days.
The following facts are taken from
the Class of 1845 record printed after
the semi-centennial reunion:
Edward Olmstead, second son of Pro-
fessor Hawley Olmstead and Harriet
Smith Olmstead, daughter of Phineas
Smith, Esq., of New Canaan, Conn.,
was born at Wilton, Conn., November
22, 1824. He fitted for College under
the tuition of his father, partly at Wil-
ton Academy and partly at the Hop-
kins Grammar School, of which his
father became rector in 1830.
After graduation Professor Olmstead
taught six months at Essex, Conn.,
then spent a year in the study of Hebrew
and New Testament Greek at the Yale
Theological Seminary. At the expira-
tion of the year thus spent he became
assistant to his father for two years,
when he succeeded his father in the
rectorship of the School in the Autumn
of 1849. After four years and a half
of service as rector, his health becom-
ing impaired and needing a change, he
in the Spring of 1855 removed to
Wilton, Conn., where he purchased a
small farm and re-opened the Wilton
Academy, which his father had first
established in 1817,
He was married December 30, 1854,
to Miss Marian Hyde, a native of Nor-
wich, Conn., and a daughter of the late
James Nevins Hyde, of New Orleans,
ia. They have had ten children, four
of whom died in infancy or early child-
hood. Those surviving are Mrs.. Jane
H. Merwin, Mrs. Josiah Gilbert, Miss
Alice B., Marian H. and Chester R., of

All leading haberdashers
Edward Olmstead’s life has been un-
attended by any remarkable incidents
or changes; but full of ettective labor,
none the less, in the department which
he so early chose as his life profession.
Many pupils have been under his care,
who remember him gratefully as their
kind but through educator. But the
discipline of the school room had de-
prived him of none of the vivacity and
geniality, so well remembered by his
classmates as characteristics of him in
College. And as for the warmth of his
welcome to classmates they had only
to test it to be assured that it had in
“no wise abated since he gave them each
on graduation dav lis parting hearty
grasp, with unmistakable good wishes
for their future. One year after the
Class graduated he was chosen Class
Secretary in place of O. T. Chester,
resigned, which office -he held for nine
years, during which he prepared the
first Class record. At an early age he
united with the Congregational Church
in New Haven, and soon after his re-
moval to Wilton was elected a deacon
of the Congregational Church in that
place, continuing in that office to the
present time (1895), always ready and
active in doing his share in the promo-
tion of good.
JUDGE JOHN WILLIAM SHOWALTER, ’67.
Judge John William Showalter, ’67,
of the United States Supreme Court,
died in Chicago on December toth of
pneumonia.
Judge Showalter was born in Min-
erva, Ky., on February 8th, 1844, and
entered the Class of Sixty-Seven in the
first term of Junior year. After gradua-
tion he read law at his home in. Min-
erva, Ky. and practiced there for some
years. In 1882 he went to Chicago,
‘Ill. and practiced law there until Febru-
ary, 1895, when he was appointed to the
Federal bench by. President Cleveland.
Judge Showalter was one of the most
interesting figures on the bench in
Chicago. He was striking in appear-
ance and unusually well preserved for
a man of his years. For many years
he was a member of the firm of Abbott,
Oliver and Showalter, and was con-
sidered one of the best brief writers in
the State.
