was often busied in their behalf in efforts to secure for them gainful occupations and other relief for their various needs. One of his great achievements for them was securing an endowment for the Wes- ley Memorial hospital now at Emory University conditioned on the perpetual free use of a ward there by the deaf people of Georgia. It was also through his good offices that the Methodist Church of Georgia provided a minister specially for the deaf. It is likely that this beneficence will also con tinue in perpetuity to the deaf people of Georgia. For fifteen years Mr. Crusselle has been a mem ber of the Board of Trustees of the Georgia School for the Deaf and at the time of his death he was a member of the Executive Committee which meets every month to consider ways and means of pro moting the education of the three hundred deaf chil dren composing the body of pupils. He was second to no member of the Board of Trustees in his eager interest in everything and every body at the school. He endeared himself to us all. Officers, teachers and pupils alike learned to love him and alike we mourn his loss. Alike we tender to his wife and the other members of his family our profound sympathies. Mr. Crusselle having had the training and exper ience of the educator could fully sympathize with WILLIAM F. CRUSSELLE us as teachers of the deaf. He was himself unusually By .1.
