YALE OBITUARIES.
CHARLES PEIRCE STETSON, ’55.
Charles Pierce Stetson, died at his
home in Bangor, Maine, September 209,
of heart disease, after a few days ill-
ness.
Charles Peirce Stetson was a son of
the late Charles Stetson, ’23, and was
born in Bangor, May 24, 1835. He pre-
pared for College in the Bangor schools
and after graduating from Yale with
the Class of Fifty-Five, took up the
study of law in Bangor with Messrs.
Rowe & Bartlett, where he remained un- |
til 1856. The following year was spent
in the Harvard Law School and in July,
1857, he was admitted to the bar of Maine.
He then formed a partnership with
Joseph Carr, of Bangor, and immediately
began to practice. His ability soon won
recognition in both professional and
political circles and-in the Fall of 1861
he was elected County Attorney for
Penobscot County, to which position’ he
was elected for twelve successive years.
The growth of his private clientage then
forced him to refuse another election.
Mr. Stetson’s business sagacity and
sound judgment were fully recognized
by the leading corporations of the lo-
cality, so that at the time of his death
he was President of the European and
North American Railroad, Vice-Presi-
dent of the Merchant’s National Bank,
and a Director in the First National
Bank, Union Insurance Company, Ban-
gor Gas Light Company and the Ban-
gor Bridge Company. :
He was married to Miss Annie S.
Sawyer, May 24, 1875, who survives him.
His only son, Charles Stetson, is a mem-
ber of the Senior class of Yale Univer-
sity.

Edwin Holt English, ex-’75, died of

ness life in the office of his father, the

lish & Holt being continued. Mr. Eng-

IMPORTANT NEW BOOKS.
The Dutch and Quaker Colonies in America
With 8 maps. -2 vols. crown 8vo, gilt top, $4.00.
By JOHN FISKE.
This is a work of first-rate importance, probably the most distinctive contribution of |
this year to American historical literature.
nings of New England.”’
It comes next in order to Mr. Fiske’s “ Begin-
It traces the causes which led to the colonizing of New York by
the Dutch, and Pennsylvania by the Quakers; it describes the small beginnings, the formid-
able obstacles, the tenacious purpose, and the gradual growth of these colonies to great
power.
The very interesting story is told with the remarkable clearness and charm which
make Mr. Fiske’s volumes of American history as delightful as they are important.
Letters and Kecollections of
John Murray Forbes.....
Edited by his daughter, SARAH F. HUGHEs. With portraits. 2 vols.
8vo, gilt top, $5.00.
This work is one of the most notable which the year will bring in the department of
biography. Mr. Forbes was a man of remarkable force and quality of character, a sagacious
leader among business men, of an ideal public spirit, and a prince among philanthropists.
Mr. Emerson, who knew him intimately, held Mr. Forbes to be an American of the noblest
type.
HORACE BUSHNELL
By THEODORE T. MUNGER, D.D. With
two portraits. 12mo, $2.00.
Both the writer and the subject of this book
strongly commend it to public attention, Dr.
Bushnell was for years one of the brightest and
clearest lights of the American pulpit, illustri-
ous for strength of mind, beauty of character, and
intrepid’ devotion to truth. Dr. Munger is pecu-
- liarly fitted to interpret him to this generation and
to build an enduring memorial to him.
THE END OF AN ERA
By JOHN S. WISE. 12mo, $2.00.
The era here described is that which for the
Southern States came to an end with the surrender
of General Johnston to General Sherman in 1865.
The author is the son of Gov. Henry A. Wise of
Virginia, and he describes antebellum life in Vir-
ginia, its social charm and its peculiar characteris-
tics, the excitement of the John Brown invasion
and his observations and experience during the
Civil War. His book gives a remarkably vivid
and accurate inside view of the Confederate States
and is at once very valuable and interesting. :
CONTEMPORARIES
By THOMAS WENTWORTH HIGGINSON, |
author of ‘‘ Cheerful Yesterdays,” etc. 12mo, |
$2.00.
The_ subjects treated in this interesting volume
are: Emerson, Alcott, Theodore Parker, Whittier,
Whitman, Lanier, An Evening with Mrs. Haw-
thorne, Mrs. Child, Helen Jackson (‘‘H. a 72),
John Holmes, Dr. Thaddeus W. Harris, A Visit to
John Brown’s Household, Garrison, Phillips, Sum-
ner, Dr. S. G. Howe, General Grant, The Eccen-
tricities of Reformers, and a group of celebrities
whom Colonel Higginson met in England.
RELIGIO PICTORIS
By HELEN BIGELOW MERRIMAN, author of
‘What Shall Make us Whole?’’ 12mo, $1.50.
Mrs. Merriman’s previous book attracted marked
attention. The present book is an attempt to show,
from the standpoint of the artist, the fundamental
unity between things material and spiritual, and
that the secret of life is to be found in the relation
and interaction of these. The book deals with the
problems of life and religion in a profound and
illuminating way and with a deeply reverent spirit,
and is well fitted to inspire and lead those who find
little comfort in formal creeds.
