EIVIORIA .EAMES HARVEY OSBORNE Professor.James Harvey Osborne, secretary of the faculty at Wabash college and one of C1'3.WI01'dSV1llQ,S most prominent residents, died at his home on March 5. Prof. Osborne was 80 years old and had been a member of the Wabash faculty since 1881, serving for thirty-five years as professor of mathematics. He retired from active teaching in 1916, and since then has served as secretary to the faculty and assistant librarian. During his long service with the college he took a deep interest in student affairs and for many years was secretary for the Wabash chapter of Phi Beta Kappa, national honorary scholastic society, of which he was a member. Prof. Osborne was also identified prominently with the Association of Wabash Men, and served continuously as the assoc1at1on's secretary since its inception. He was a member of the Presbyterian Churchg he was also a member of the Phi Kappa Psi social fraternity. Born near Carpentersville, Prof. Osborne received his education at the Waveland academy, and Wabash college. He was graduated from Wabash in 1879. JASPER ASAPH CRAGWALL Jasper Asaph Cragwall, Professor of Mathematics at Wabash college from 1901 until 1929, died October 29, 1937, at his home in Bean Station, Tennessee. Professor Cragwall, affectionately known as Craggy to Wabash men and Crawfords- ville residents, was a native of Tennessee. He was born April 23, 1867, and graduated from Vanderbilt University in 1886. For eight years following his graduation he was associated with the Nashville, Chat- tanooga Sz St. Louis railroad as civil engineer, leaving the employ of the railroad in 1895 to take graduate work and teach mathematics until he came to Wabash College in 1901. During his twenty-eight years' service with Wabash he endeared himself to students, alumni, and townspeople, and probably was known by more Wabash men than any member of the faculty. In 1932, when Wabash celebrated its centennial, Professor Crag- wall was given the honorary degree of Doctor of Science. Since his retirement from the faculty he had made his home in the south, spending the winter with his son, Jasper, in New Orleans, and the summer months near Tate Springs, Tennessee.

He was born March 9, 1873, at New Albany, entered Wabash and joined the faculty immediately after graduation. In 1898 he received the Master of Arts degree from Wabash, and thereafter devoted most of his time to the instruction of Greek. He resigned in 1916 to accept an executive position with the General Box Corporation. He was elected a member of the Board of Trustees in 1919, a position which he held until 1924. For the past twelve years he has been associated with Dumont Peck, Class of 1906, in the insur- ance business in New York. Mr. Hains, or Dan as he was known to Wabash students for two decades and a half, took part in several extra-curricular activities 'while on the Wabash faculty. One of the most important of these activities was his presentation of Greek plays.
