Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: IN MEMORIAM It is painful to announce the death of our Classmate, Andrew Kirkpatrick, which took place from a sudden illness, May 3rd., instant, after these pages were in the hands of the printer. The event was widely noticed in the press with comments on the character, prominence and peculiarities of this very able jurist. Judge Kirkpatrick took a lively interest in this Book and has corresponded freely on the subject, his latest letter having a passage which is of pathetic interest in view of its intimation of a weariness which perhaps meant more than he realised when he wrote of it. The Class Historian had had occasion to mention to him a place here offered for occupancy during the summer months. He writes, under date April I5th., ? I have not been aible for many years to go so far from home that I could not be in daily touch with Newark, and be able to go back and forth for the transaction of necessary business. I therefore go to a nearby place on the sea shore, instead of an inland place such as you suggest. I thank you, however, for calling my attention to Cherry Valley, and assure you that in my present rather tired out condition I would be glad of the rest which it would afford. Hon. John Lind McAtee passed away in Chicago, June 13, 1904, after a four days' illness from paralysis caused by hemorrhage of the brain. Our Classmate had just previously passed through an illness of two months from neuritis, which had greatly prostrated him, but from which he was hopeful of recovery. His only daughter and eldest son were with him. INDEX Atlantic Cable Celebration, see under sketch of McAtee. Classmates in the Civil War, see under Sketch of Sheldon.
