Professor Perrin is a thorough musician, and while in college he played the organ in the church in New Britain, of which his father was pastor. Since .coming to Adelbert he has been the college organist. Professor Perrin married Luella Perrin, a second cousin, August 17, 1881. Mrs. Perrin was in every respect a true helpmeet, and her death in july, 1889, was most keenly felt by all who had the privilege of her acquaintance. There are two children of this mar- riage-Lee James and Lester 'William-aged seven and ive years. Professor Perrin has contributed papers to the American Journal of Philology and to the Transactions of the American Philological Association, and has published an edition of Ceesar's Civil lVar: New York University Publishing Company, 1889. He has devoted much attention to the study of Homer, and ranks as one ofthe foremost American scholars in that department. He is at present engaged in editing the first twelve books of the Odyssey for the College Series of Greek Authors, published by Ginn Sz Co., Boston. The first four books appeared in 1889, and were received with marked approval. Professor Perrin was for several years a member ofthe Executive Committee ofthe American Philological Association, and one of its Vice-Presidents in 1888-89. A One thing will sulhce to show the feeling of all students of Adel- bert College for Professor Perrin, and thatis the opinion emphatically expressed by more than one of his best pupils, that he is to them the ideal teacher of Greek. 12
