YALE OBITUARIES.
[Continued from page 284.]
A letter written by Mayo in 1892, for
the fortieth anniversary of his gradua-
tion, from which most of his war his-
tory is taken, closes thus: “Although I
fought on the side of the South, I yield
to no man in my attachment to our
common country, and I fervently thank
our Heavenly Father for the failure of
the cause which, as a Virginian, I so
earnestly espoused; for I now firmly
believe its success would have been at-
tended with the most deporable results.”
After the war he engaged in business
at Richmond. In 1888 he was appointed
a clerk in the State Department at
Washington, and was soon promoted to
be translator. He is reported to have
been able to read and write eleven lan-
guages, viz.: French, German, Italian,
Spanish, Portuguese, Danish, Swedish,
Norwegian, Greek, Latin and Hebrew,
and to have spoken with fluency the
Continental languages. In June, 1895,
at sixty-one years of age, he finished a
three years course at the Columbia Uni-
versity Law School, and was admitted
to the bar of the District of Columbia.
In 1870 Mr. Mayo married Ellen,
daughter of Gen. Henry A. Wise, ex-
Governor of Virginia, who, with a son
and four daughters, survives him. The
son, Henry Wise Mayo, graduated at
the Law Department of the University
of Virginia, and is now a member of the
bar of New York City.
FRANK HENRY HOOKER, ’64.
Frank Henry Hooker, ’64, died. sud-
denly of apoplexy Saturday morning,
April 14, at his home in New Haven.
He had retired to his room Friday night,
in apparently perfect health, having just
completed arrangements for a trip to
California with several friends. When
he did not appear at breakfast his son
went to his room and found him dead.
Mr. Hooker was born in New Haven,
Jan. 11, 1843, and prepared for College
at Hopkins Grammar School. After
graduation he went to St. Louis, Mo.,
where he was in business for a time, but
in 1873 returned to New Haven to be-
come Treasurer of the Henry Hooker
Company. He held this position at the
time of his death and was besides a
Director in the National Tradesmen’s
Bank, in the Winchester Repeating Arms
Company, the United Illuminating Com-
pany, Treasurer of the Hygeia Ice Com-
pany, a Trustee of the New Haven Say-
ings Bank and a Vestryman in Trinity
Church. He was a member of the Quin-
nipiac, Country and Ansantawae Clubs
and while in College was in Linonia,
the Varuna Boat Club and D.K.E.
Mr. Hooker was married to Miss
Grace Russell, who died several years
ago. Three children are living, Clar-
ence R., Elizabeth R. and Donald R.
The latter graduated from the Academic
Department of Yale in 1809.

School. He entered Yale with the Class
of Ninety-Nine, but on account of fail-

His health grew steadily worse, however,
and a severe cold which he had con-
tracted hastened the end.
