YALE OBITUARIES.
[Continued from 67th page.
EDWIN 0. STANARD, JR., 2.
The WEeEExty has already contained the
simple announcement of the death of
Edwin O. Stanard, Jr., ’92, on Oct. 19,
1809. He died suddenly at Colorado
Springs, Colorado, of pneumonia, after
an illness of only four days.
Edwin Obed Stanard, Jr., was born
January 1, 1869, and was the son of
Hon. and Mrs. Edwin O. Stanard of St.
Louis, Mo. He fitted for College at
Smith Academy, St. Louis, and entered
Yale with the Class of Ninety-Two. He
was a member of. H.®., A. K. E, and
Scroll and Key societies, a member of
the University Banjo Club during his
Sophomore, Junior and Senior years, a
delegate to the A. K. E. convention and
President of the St. Louis Club.
From entrance to graduation, Edwin
Stanard was in the best sense a Yale
man. He was clean cut, straightfor-
ward, absolutely without ostentation, and
was never a party to college nolitics or
engaged in manoeuvering for personal
advantage. He received, because they
were due him, the best honors of college,
and no one begrudged him his position.
He was not only loved by his friends,
but respected by every one.
After graduation he entered business
with the E. O. Stanard Milling Co., and
in 1894, was elected Treasurer of the
company. Shortly after that his health
became impaired and after traveling con-
siderably abroad, he settled at Colorado
Springs, where he lived most of the time
until his death. He was interested in
mining property in the West, and also
spent cortsiderable time each year in
hunting big game in Colorado and
Wyoming. He was a most successful
sportsman and wrote one of the best
articles published on the killing of big
game in the Rocky Mountains, which
appeared in Harper's Weekly during
April, 1899. | H.
The funeral services were held Octo-
ber 21, at the house of Mr. Stanard’s
father, ex-Governor E. O. Stanard, in
St. Louis. The bearers were George
H. Capen, 90; George C. Hitchcock, ’90,
Wallace D. Simmons, ’90; A. C. Orrick,
’92; William Maffitt, 793; Logan Hay,
’93; Alfred H. Jones, ’93; Charles Skin-
ker, 94; Harold M. Kauffman, ’97, and
Monroe Horton.

Wisconsin Association Dinner.
The first meeting. and dinner of the
Yale graduates of Wisconsin was held
at the Milwaukee Club, Milwaukee, Wis.,
Friday night, Oct. 27. Twenty-three
graduates were in attendance and the
meeting goes on record as a very en-
thusiastic and successful one. The din-
ner was served from 7 to 9 o’clock, and
between the courses college songs were
sung, led by Dr. C. S. She] 162.
Madison. ve
James G. Flanders, ’67, presided as
- toastmaster, and after suitable allusions
to the enjoyment of the occasion, called
upon various ones present for informal
remarks. There was no set list of
speakers. | Impromptu speeches were
made by John Hustis, ’33, Hustisford,
the oldest graduate in the State; J. M
Whitehead, 777, Janesville; Amos P.
Wilder, ’84, Madison; Dr. C. 5S. Shel-
don, 63, Madison; Prof. R. C. Chapin,
‘go TS, Beloit; FP. B.. Dubach, 278,
Eau Claire, and Nathan Glicksman, ’91,
Milwaukee.
The most important feature of the
- evening was the organization of the Yale
Alumni Association of Wisconsin. The
following officers were elected: Pres-
ident, James G. Flanders, 67, of Mil-
waukee; Vice-President, J. M. White-
head, 77, of Janesville; Secretary and
Treasurer, C. H. George, 94 of Mil-
waukee; Executive Committee, G. W.
Burton, ’78, La Crosse; Grand Fitch,
’81, Milwaukee; Prof. R. C. Chapin, ’go,
T.S., Beloit; Nathan Glicksman, ’o1,
Milwaukee, and Dr. P. F. Rogers, ’94,
Milwaukee. Res
By means of this organization the
Yale men in Wisconsin, it is hoped, will
be brought into closer touch with one
another, and an annual meeting and din-
ner is assured.
The rest of the evening was spent in
college songs and reminiscences. Shortly
after midnight the company dispersed.

A BIT OF HISTORY.
[From Woodward’s “ Insurance in Connecticut.’”]
The /Etna escaped the fire of December 16th, 1835, in New York City—the first in the
series of great American conflagrations—which destroyed property to the value of $15,000-
000, and bankrupted twenty-three out of twenty-six local insurance companies.
It entered
the city the following year, having for agent Augustus G. Hazard, afterwards the organizer
and president of the Hazard Powder Company of Enfield.
It was not so fortunate in the fire
of 1845, which swept $6,000,000 of property from the business center of the metropolis, and
cost the Aetna $115,000. When the news reached Hartford, Mr. Brace called together the
directors and told them that the calamity would probably exhaust the entire resources of
the company. Going to the fire-proof vault, he took out and laid on the table the stocks and
bonds representing its investments.
Little was said, each member waiting for some one
else to take the initiative. At length the silence was broken by the question: “ Mr. Brace,
what will you do?”’
“Do?” replied he. “Go to New York and pay the losses if it takes every dollar there,”’
pointing to the packages, “and my fortune besides.”
“ Good, good,’’ responded the others. “ We will stand by you with our fortunes also.”
So it had always been with the tna in every crisis which it had before
faced. The same spirit had carried this famous Company through where
others had gone to the wall,
This was the last close call for the AEtna.
To-day with its cash capital of
$4,000,000, a net surplus of nearly $5,000,000, and a system built on the
priceless experience of eighty years, it is hardly possible to conceive of its
having a close call.
