was present at the taking of Port Hud-
son and Donaldsonville, and participated
in Gen. Bank’s expedition through Lou-
isiana to New Orleans. :
After being mustered out in August,
1863, Mr. Magill established a boarding
school for boys in Old Lyme, Conn.
In 1865 he received the degree of M.A.
from Yale. In 1868 he opened a school
for boys in Newton, N. J., and in 1870
removed to New Haven, where he con-
aated a school until his retirement in
1876. |
Since 1878, Mr. Magill ha’ lived in
Amherst, Mass., spending his time on
his farm and with his duties as treasurer
of the Amherst Cooperative Creamery
Association, which he largely helped to
organize in 1882. |
Mr. Magill’s mother survives him,
now 87 years of age, the only living
aunt of President Hadley of Yale.
The widow, Matilda Smith Magill, and
four children also survive him: Maud
Helen, Dr. William S.. Claud A., and
Arthur E. Magill.
FREDERIC SANFORD CALHOUN, 783.
Frederic Sanford Calhoun, ’83, died
at Newton, Mass., Thursday, Nov. 23.
Mr. Calhoun, son of David Calhoun,
was born in New Haven, 1862. After
graduating at Yale and traveling for a
year, Mr. Calhoun entered the firm of
R. Wells & Co., wholesale drug house
in New Haven. In four years he be-
came a member of the firm and in 1892
he was conducting the business alone,
under the style of F. S. Calhoun & Co.
He was a member of the Church of
the Redeemer, and also a member of
the Graduates’, the Countrv and the An-
santawae Club, and of the University
Club of New York.
Mr. Calhoun’s health had been very
poor for several years, and while visit-
ing in Newton, he had a hemorrhage
of the lungs which proved fatal. Mr.
Calhoun is survived by a mother and
sister and a wife and child.
OLIVER H. PERRY, “OQS.
On Wednesday, November 29, oc-
curred the death at Omaha, Neb. of
Oliver H. Perry, ’900S. Mr. Perry,
after graduating, went to his home at
Southport, Conn., but soon after this,
in July, he left to accept a position in
the Civil Engineering Department of
the Union Pacific Kailroad. He was
sent by them to Kansas and worked
there during the Summer. In October
he was taken sick with typhoid fever
and went to Omaha to be with his
friend C. L. Sherwood, 98S. He died
there after an illness of four weeks.
The funeral services were held at his
home in Southport, Conn. on Monday,
December 4th, at 2.30 o'clock.
The news of his death will be a shock
to a great many men, who rated him
high for his character and worth. A
friend, writing of his death, uses the
sentence “He was a manlv man and in
the best sense of the term a true Yale
man.” Mr. Perry was the only son
of H. H. Perry, 69S. An uncle, Hon.
John H. Perry, graduated in 1870, an-
other uncle, Winthrop H. Perry, gradu-
ated in 1876. A grandfather graduated
in 1834 and another uncle in 1853.
The Late W. D. Manro, ’88.
The following minute was recently
adopted by the Class of Eighty-Fight
through its committee:
William Davis Manro, born in Au-
burn, N. Y., June 27, 1864. Died at
Minneapolis, Oct. 18, 1899. The news:
of the sad and tragic close of Manro’s
life has startled his classmates with a
feeling of grief and horror. In a mo-
ment of temporary insanity he threw |
himself from the Washington Avenue
Bridge in Minneapolis, and no trace of
his body has as yet been discovered.
Fitted for College at Phillips Andover,
Manro was for several years the associ-
ate and classmate of many of our num-
ber. He brought to College a cheerful-
ness of temper, a genial and _ social
nature, which made him quickly the
companion and friend of his fellows.
Tragedy and sorrow seemed strangers
to him. Wit and good humor were his
natural gifts. By these he will be long
remembered among his classmates. His
early successes in the profession of
teaching seem to have been unusual.
He became principal of two schools in
Rome, N. Y., within a vear after leav-
ing college and a little later the superin-
tendent of all the city schools. He left
Rome to accept a similar position in
Paterson, N. J.; but soon found a new
out-let for his activities in the insurance
business. At the time of his death he
was about to represent a large company
in the city of Minneapolis.
Behind a cloud which no human eye
can penetrate he slipped out of life. All
the more tenderly we sorrow for him—
sorrow over the remembrance of his
suffering, and for his loss. To those
who were near to him and who loved
him we extend our heartfelt sympathy.

Who is the
LEADER?
That is an exceedingly hard question
to answer in relation to the foot-
ball season. It has been up and
down with nearly all the big
elevens all the season — unex-
pected slumps and unexpected
rallies.
The season is not long or varied
enough, with conditions as they
now are, to establish the place of
the different teams. Consider
how long .it takes in the game
of business to establish one house
well in the lead of all the others.
Years and history are, for instance,
back of the great athletic house
that supplies nearly all the foot-
ball elevens and other athletic
teams of the country.
