YALE OBITUARY.
REV. LEVI WELLS HART, 746.
Rev. Levi Wells Hart, Yale ’46, died
of pneumonia at his home in Ramsey,
N. J., on February 22, after a short ill-
ness. |
Mr. Hart was born in New Britain,
Conn., June 7, 1825, and after gradua-
tion studied Theology at Union Theo-
logical Seminary, and preached for a
year or more in New York City. In
1850 he entered upon what proved to
be his lifé work—the preparation of
young men for college, taking charge
of the College Grammar School in
Brooklyn, N. Y.
This School he conducted till within
a week of his death, when he had just
begun his duties as Professor of Lan-
guages in the School of Commerce,
connected with the Pratt Institute of
Brooklyn. The large number of those
who have received instruction from him,
and are prominent in the business and
educational circles of Brooklyn and
vicinity, testify to the thoroughness of
his methods and his devotion to his
work.
In 1854 he married Georgiana, daugh-
ter of Wm. B. North of New Britain,
who survives him. Brooklyn was their
home till 1887, when they moved to
Ramsey. In this place his intelligent
and active interest in all matters per-
taining to education, good citizenship
and the religious life of the community .
i : | nity,
endeared him to all his townspeople.

held for thirty years and was then re-
tired on a pension on account of age.
In the war of the Rebellion, he was ap-
pointed Draft Surgeon by Governor
Morgan, and he did good service dur-
ing the riot of 1863. In 1868, Dr.
Waterman introduced the study of
spectroscopic analysis in the practice
of Medicine and he has always been a
specialist on this subject. He was ap-
pointed Professor of Venal Diseases in
the Eclectic College, but retired on ac-
count of ill health. He joined the
B’nai B’rith in 1850, and was at its
head for three years as grand sar. He
was one of the founders and for a
time President of the Home for Aged
and Infirm, at Yonkers,an d belonged
