' PREFATORY NOTE.

This Obituary Record is the seventh issued, the plan of devoting the July issue of the Bulletin to this use having been adopted in 1918. The data here pre­ sented has been collected through the persistent efforts of the Treasurer of the College, who makes it his con­ cern to secure and preserve as full a record as possible of the activities of Trinity men as well as anything else having value for the history of the College. Readers who find it in their power to correct errors or to contribute further information will confer a great favor if they will at once communicate with the Treasurer,_ Edgar F. Waterman, Esquire. Material corrections and additions will be incorporated in the next issue of the Necrology. Attention is particularly called to those alumni, for whose biographies we have only meagre data. It is hoped that relatives and friends may be able to supply additional information, so that an adequate record may be preserved. ARTHUR ADAMS.

He was one of the most modest of men, but won the respect and affection of all with whom he came into contact. Frederic Walton Carpenter Faculty. The entire College community was profoundly shocked and grieved by the death, following an operation, at the Hart­ ford Hospital on March 1, 1925, of Frederic Walton Carpenter, since 1913 J. Pierpont Morgan Professor of Biology. Professor Carpenter had endeared himself to his colleagues and to his students by his ability as a teacher and by his qualities of sym­ pathy and genuine friendliness. He was perhaps the member of the Faculty most universally beloved. He was born May 12, 1876, in Millbrook, New York, a son of Franklin T. and Jane (Willets) Carpenter. He was graduated from New York University with the degree of B. S. in 1899. He went to Harvard University for graduate work in Biology, receiving the degree of M. A. in 1902, and the degree of Ph. D. in 1904. He studied at the Neurological Institute at Frankford­ on-Main, Germany in 1908, and at the Universities of Berlin and Munich during the years 1910-191 I. While a graduate student at Harvard, he was an Assistant in Zoology, 1901-1903, and was a Lecturer in Biology at the Summer School of New York University during the summers of 1904 and 1905. From 1904-1905 he was Instructor in Biology at the Univer­ sity of Illinois. From 1908-1910, he was Associate and from 1911-1913, Assistant Professor of Biology at the same institution. In the summer of 1909 he was Director of the Bermuda Biological Station. In 1913 he became J. Pierpont Morgan Professor of Biology at Trinity College. · His special field of research was the Central Nervous Sys­ tem, and his work won the recognition and praise of scholars both here and abroad. He was a member of the editorial board of Folia Neuro-Bt'ologica, published in Holland, of the Ergebnisse OBITUARY RECORD. 35

der Physiologie, and was a contributor to L'A nnee Biologique, and to many other journals at home and abroad. Perhaps Professor Carpenter's greatest contribution to the scholastic side of his activities at Trinity was in the development, with Professors Swan and Krieble, of the pre-medical course. The students trained in this course have made enviable records in all the best medical schools in the country. He was Quarter-Master of the American Red Cross Sani­ tary Training Detachment No. 2, 1917; Associate Field Director ·and later Field Director of the Hospital Service. During the year 1918-1919 he took leave of absence and served with the rank of Major with the American Red Cross, attached to Camp Devens as Director of the Hospital Service (June 21, 1918- July l, 1919). Here he did valuable work during the influenza epidemic of that year. Doctor Carpenter was a member of the American Society of Zoologists, of the Association of American Anatomists, and was a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He was a member of the Phi Beta Kappa, of Sigma XI ; and of the Zeta Psi fraternity. He married Dorothy E. Dresler of New York, June 25, 1906, who survives him. There are no children. The Faculty of Trinity College adopted the following minute March 1925: IN MEMORIAM Frederic Walton Carpenter 1876-1925 In the passing of Frederic Walton Carpenter, Professor of Biology, who died on March l, 1925, Trinity College suffers , an irreparable loss. He has gone from us suddenly in the prime of his age and powers, leaving his admirable work for the college incomplete and the fruit of long years of study ungathered. No imaginable cessation could have less apparent meaning or could sadden us more deeply by a sense of hopeless and over­ whelming waste. What we most admired in our friend and colleague was the inexhaustible patience shown in his thought by a scrupulous exactness, in his conduct by unwavering justice, and in all his dealings with other men by quietness and courtesy. Though reticent, he was never cold, and he had the gentleness of strength. Untouched by animosity and untainted by self-seeking, setting love always side by side with law, he lived true to the noble TRINITY COLLEGE. teaching· of the Society of Friends in which he was reared. Yet his patience never betrayed him into laxity. In the presence of what he disapproved his very silence was often more eloquent with rebuke than the words of other men. Although an ardent lover of literature and of the wild, Professor Carpenter was essentially a scholar and teacher, allowing nothing to come between him and his exacting work. The only pride he. had in his own accomplishment seemed to be in what he had been able to do for his pupils. Arduous self­ discipline, study and travel in many lands, prolonged concen­ tration upon the great subject of his special interest, had brought him scholarship wide and deep, but all of this together with the sense of awe which. filled him before the spectacle of life's beauty, he seems to have valued chiefly in the hope that he might communicate it to others. Always scrupulously accurate in the handling of fact, he strove steadily forward towards truth, living soberly and yet with deep happiness in the light of the ideal Thus he built his strength and knowledge and wisddm solidly into the fabric of the college which he served for more than a decade. Day by day, year in and year out, he gave all that he had, and what he had was much. But words will not depict this man to whom words never came so readily as works. He spoke.in deeds that were thought­ ful, beneficent, and wise. He will never cease to speak through the deeds of those who are more tolerant of others and more exacting of themselves because he has lived. Hi monument is in the lives of all the many men who have admired and respected him, who have been unable to live beside him without resolving to attain something of his quiet nobility. His memorial stands forever in the hearts of that smaller number who felt for him an abiding affettion, of which, in some cases, he never knew. He lives among us still as a memory whi'ch will be fruitful and beneficent while our college stands, - the memory of a strong and quiet man, high-minded, gentle, just, and faithful to the uttermost.
