YALE OBITUARIES.
[Continued from page 256 |
Mr. Cady was born in Hartford, August
20, 1877 and prepared for Yale at An-
dover. He was a member of the Yale
track team and belonged to the He Boule
and Delta Kappa Epsilon societies. He
was highly respected by his Class for his
character and beloved by a very large
number. ;
Mr Cady was a brother of Ernest H.
Cady, ’gs S.
At a very large meeting of Mr. Cady’s
classmates in Dwight Hall, March 26,
these resolutions were adopted:
Inasmuch as it hath pleased Almighty
God in His Providence to remove from
us our beloved friend and classmate,
Charles Washburn Cady, deeply en-
deared to all of us by his uniform spirit
- unassuming kindness and _ sincerity,
age Rs
Resolved, that we, his classmates,
extend to his family our deepest sym-
pathy, and that we wear a badge of
mourning sixty days in mark of our
esteem and affection for him, whom
Infinite Wisdom hath taken, and be it
_ Resolved, that a copy of these resolu-
tions be presented to his family, and
printed in the College papers.
For the Class of Nineteen Hundred
and One, R. P. Tyler, R. L. Atkinson,
H. S. Wallace, A. H. Richardson, Ray
Morris.

Rev. Dr. George Leon Walker,
"70 Hon.
Rev. Dr. George Leon Walker, pastor
emeritus of the Center Church of Hart-
ford, Conn., and a former member of
the Yale Corporation, died at his home
in Hartford, Wednesday, March 14, of
pnuemonia, after a very short sickness.
Dr. Walker was born in Rutland, Vt.,
April 30, 1830 and received his early edu-
cation in the public schools of Brattle-
boro. Although prevented by ill-health
from attending college, he continued his
studies outside of working hours and
in 1857 was licensed, by the Rutland
Association, to preach. After some time
spent in the Andover Theological Sem-
inary as “resident licentiate’ and at the
State Street Church, Portland, Maine,
he came to New Haven and took charge
of the First Congregational Church in
1868. Returning poor health compelled
him to give up his work and frorh 1873
until 1879 he travelled extensively
abroad. In the latter year he accepted a
call to the First (Center) Church, Hart-
ford, and held the pastorate till 1801,
when he resigned to devote himself to
literary pursuits. In August, 1896, while
at his Summer home in Brattleboro, Dr.
Walker was stricken with apoplexy,
which deprived him of the power of
speech and the use of the right side of
his body.
Dr. Walker was appointed to the Cor-
poration of Yale, Nov. 1, 1877, and re-
signed from that position last year.
Yale gave him the degree of D.D. in
1870. Middlebury College, Vt., had con-
ferred the degree of M.A. on him in
1858. He is survived by a son, Prof.
Williston Walker, and by a brother and
a sister,

was organized last month, has decided
to produce, within the next month, an
old English piece of the fifteenth century,

parts and when rehearsals begin they
will have the benefit of some coaching
from members of the English Depart-
ment. ¢

Vice-President. 4. W. Fisher, -L.S.-

Savin Rock for the Senior
Supper.
The Yale News contained a very spicy
set of letters a week or so ago on the
subject of Savin Rock. A member of
the Senior Class, Mr. M. P. Gould,
protested, in a long communication to
the News, against the announcement that
Nineteen Hundred’s Senior Supper
would be held at Hill’s Homestead. He
called Savin Rock the worst kind of a
place from a moral standpoint, and said
the committee was elected on an anti-
Savin Rock platform. Defenders of the
committee and of Savin Rock arose, and
the fact was brought out that the com-
mittee, which is composed of unusually
good men, had tried to find some other
place large enough but had failed. In
spite of a determined minority who say
they will not go to a class supper at
Savin Rock under any circumstances, the
majority of the class is strongly behind
the committee, and it is said that it will
be a record-breaking supper, in point of
attendance.

Universal
Athletics.
That is the goal and—it is pleasant to
say—the present tendency of the
changes in athletic policy in the
great universities. Over four
hundred men were on the water
at one time last season at Har-
vard. To-day the streets of
New Haven are fairly alive with
athletes on their runs. It’s fine.
One of the incidental results of Uni-
versal Athletics is to more thor-
oughly acquaint every university
and college man with the name
of
Ase.
