Oxtoby passed from our midst in mid-October of 1941. His passing marked the end of fifteen years of continuous and devoted service to Old Illinois . To the memory of this distinguished scholar, teacher, and friend We here pay' tribute. Since 1927 when this learned man and his family became a part of our college and community he had played an important role in the history and tradition of our great school. We miss him greatly.
