TALIM ALUMNI WRK. 141 YALE OBITUARIES. DAVID LOW HUNTINGTON, 55: Lieutenant-Colonel David Low Hunt- ington, M.D., U. S. A. (retired), died in Rome, Italy, December 20, 1899. HARRY COURTLAND GAUSE, ’99 S. Record was made in the last issue of © the Werexty of the death of Harry Courtland Gause, which occurred in New Haven, December 28. On De- cember 8, Mr. Gause was operated on for appendicitis and was apparently con- valescing rapidly when a severe hem- orrhage so weakened his heart action that he was unable to rally. Inasmuch HARRY COURTLAND GAUSE, ’99 S. as many of his friends who knew of his illness supposed that he was recovering rapidly, the fatal termination of his dis- ease came as a great shock. Mr. Gause was the oldest son of Harry Taylor Gause and Virginia Ingersoll Gause of Wilmington, Del. His father is President of the Harlan & Hollings- worth Company of that city. Mr. Gause was taking post graduate work in the Sheffield Scientific School, from which he graduated last June. As a student in College, he was very suc- cessful. This fact is attested by the special honors he received at graduation, and by his appointment to a graduate scholarship. It is further signally shown by his election, in senior year, to the honorary society of Sigma Xi. He had taken the select course in the School from which Sigma Xi has almost never chosen any of its members, taking some ground that its membership was re- served for those in purely scientific work—a matter which has caused a great deal of feeling and discussion in the School. His selection from this course was, therefore, a peculiar testi- monial to his ability and industry. In his graduate work he was taking a course leading to the degree of Master of Science, and his work here has been ex- cellent. As a member of his class his record was likewise most enviable. The tribute contained in the resolutions adopted by his Class, which are printed below, was a spontaneous one, the high endorsement and tribute being both sincere and very deeply felt. The following resolutions have been adopted by his classmates: “Whereas, God in his infinite wisdom: has taken from us our beloved friend and classmate, Harry Courtland Gause; and “Whereas, We, his classmates, mourn the loss of a true friend, an unselfish and large-hearted character; an ardent and sincere Christian; one who by his sterling qualities of mind and heart en- deared himself to us all; be it ‘Resolved, That we extend our deep- est sympathy to his bereaved family ; and be it further “Resolved, That a copy of these reso- lutions be sent to them and published in the Yale papers. “For the Class of 0S. 73 A.

In the issue of the Harvard Crimson of December 18, there appeared the fol- lowing: the University who may remain in Cam- bridge during the Christmas holidays, away from home, to give him the pleas- ure of their company on Christmas eve, from ‘8 to 10 o'clock. “Shady Hill, 18 Dee., 1800.” On this the Harvard Crimson com- mented as follows: “Students who will not have the opportunity to pass their holidays at home will appreciate Profes- sor Norton’s invitation for Christmas eve. Year after year he has sent out this invitation until now his annual ‘open house,’ on the night before Christ- mas, the night of all nights, has become a regular part of the highest side of Harvard life.” a RADE Mont, f CLUETT, PEABODY & C2 Full Dress Shirts —teady to put on —they re of faultless fit _—the bosoms never bulge —the finest garments possible to produce At Your Furnisher or Clothier CLUETT, PEABODY & CO.

He is absolutely sincere, and there isn’t a note of pessimism in his voice. He faces the future, political, social, industrial, with a cheery faith that things are working together in this world for good and not for evil. He does not believe: for a min- ute that the burden of new duties and responsibilities laid upon this country by the events of the last two years is going to drag it down to perdition.
