THE RAGLAN
As you know, this is named
from the English General, Lord
Raglan. He wore that kind of
a coat, but it has been developed
since his first wearing of it. It
is specially noticeable by the cut
of the shoulders.
Raglans will be worn a great
deal this Winter in both ulster
and overcoat. Rough cloth is
used.

ing in Connecticut and New York. For
several years he made his residence in
North Carolina, where he was interested
in a gold mine, but the outbreak of the
Civil War made it necessary for him
to return to the North, where, during
the war, he served in the Navy. At the
close of the war he directed his atten-
tions to coal mining in Ohio, but. this
work he was also forced to drop in
1868, owing to a cataract in the left eye,
which caused almost total blindness.
In 1871 he was again able to resume
business, having been _ successfully
operated upon. His business connec-
tions from that time on were with the
Murray Hill Bank in. New York City.
Mr. Darling was a bachelor.
THE LATE CAPTAIN GUY HOWARD, 75.
‘Captain Guy Howard, ’75, who was
killed at Arayat, Philippine Islands, by
the insurgents, Oct. 22, as stated in the
last issue of the WEEKLY, was a son of
Brigadier-General O. O. Howard. He
was born at Kennebec Arsenal, Augusta,
Maine, December 16, 1855, and prepared
for Yale at Phillips Academy at An-
dover. October 31, 1876, he was com-
missioned Second Lieutenant Twelfth
Infantry, U. S. A. He served in several
Indian wars, and commanded a com-
pany of Indian scouts on the Mexican
frontier in 1879 and 1880. He was
made Aide-de-Camp on the staff of the
General commanding the Department
of the Columbia, May 1, 1880. He was
transferred to the Department of West
Point, January 1, 1881. He spent two
years at the Artillery School at Fort
Monroe, and was graduated therefrom
May 1, 1882. He served later as Aide-
de-Camp on the staff of his father, then
commanding the Department of the
Platte. July 19, 1882 he was promoted
to a First Lieutenancy of the Twelfth
Infantry. January 7, 1893, he was ap-
pointed an Assistant Quartermaster,
which transferred him from the line to
the staff. 3

last regiment was mustered out April
~ 10, 1898. He then returned to his posi-
tion as Captain and Assistant Quarter-
master in the regular army.
Captain Howard, then Lieutenant
Howard, was married February 14,
1884, to Miss Jeanie Woolworth at
Omaha, Nebraska. Mrs. Howard with
three children survive him. Captain
Howard is described by a classmate as
very greatly esteemed and beloved in
his class. An incident in his life which
showed his skill and bravery was his
conduct in the shipwreck in the Nica-
ragua Canal party on Ronsador Reef,
March, 27, 1891. Captain Howard was in
charge of the party and to his manage-
ment and bravery the fact that all es-
caped in safety is largely due.
WILLIAM DAVIS MANRO, EX-’88.
William Davis Manro, ex-’88, while
temporarily demented committed suicide
by jumping from the Washington Avenue
bridge in Minneapolis, October 18. Mr.
Manro attempted to take his life last
Spring when in a similiar condition, but
was saved by prompt medical assistance.
As the body has not yet been recovered
and several bits of evidence point to .his
possibly escape from the water the au-
thorities do not feel sure of his death,
but the fact that the jump was one
hundred feet into three feet of water,
makes it incredible that he could have
survived.
William Davis Manro received his
early education at Phillips Andover
Academy and although he took the full
course of studies with the Class of
Eighty-Eight he did not receive his de-
gree. After leaving College he was en-
gaged for several years as Principal of
the high school at Rome, N. Y. He was
then engaged to fill a similiar position
in Paterson, N. J., and later held a posi-
tion with the New York Life Insurance
Company. He was about to take charge
of the Minneapolis office of that com-
pany at the time of his death.
DWIGHT WALTER BISSELL, EX-’89.
Dwight Walter Bissell, a former mem-
ber of the Class of Eighty-Nine, died at
Grace Hospital, New Haven, Monday
evening, October 31, as the result of
an over dose of morphine. Mr. Bissell
had been staying at the New Haven
House for several days and presumably
took the morphine to induce sleep of
which he had had little for some time.
One of his friends who called at his room
at the hotel on Monday found him
just going under the influence of the
drug. Mr. Bissell himself saw his case
was serious and asked that Dr. Arthur
S. Cheney be sent for. Dr. Cheney
ordered him sent at once to Grace Hos-
pital, and efforts were made to revive
him, but without any success.
Mr. Bissell’s home was at North
Stonington, Conn. He had formerly
been in railroad business in Mexico, but
was not in active business at the time
of his death. He married, March 4,
1895, Miss Mary Wheeler of Stonington.
He left no children.
