CLASS OF 1884. LOUIS ATHERTON SCOVEL, eldest son of Rev. DWIGHT SCOVEL, '54, of Clinton, was born in Lakeville, N. Y., April 22, 1863, and died at his father's house in Clinton, on Saturday, April 19, 1890. The twenty-seventh anniversary of his birth was the day of his burial. He was graduated from Hamilton College in 1884. Immediately afterward he entered the medical department of Wooster University, Cleveland, O. Upon his graduation from that institution, he was appointed house physician and surgeon in St. Alexis Hospital, Cleveland. This position he held for five months, and then resigned to take a post-graduate course in the College of Physicians and Surgeons in New York city. September 29, 1886, Dr. Scovel married Miss Anna M. Whittlesey at her father's house in Lyons Falls. He began the practice of his profession in Cazenovia, and afterward settled in Boonville. Failing health in a short time compelled him to give up his practice there and he went to reside at Lyons Falls. He spent the winter of 1888-9 at Rock Ledge, Fla., but without material benefit to his health. For several months past he had been at his home in Clinton. Last January he had a severe attack of the Russian influenza, which left him suffering from broncho-pneumonia. The immediate cause of his death, however, was heart exhaustion, with which he was attacked on Friday morning at 4 o'clock and from that time he gradually failed until his death at 3 A. M. on Saturday. The funeral services were conducted by the Rev. Thomas B. Hudson, D. D., pastor of the Stone Church, assisted by the Rev. W. H. Maynard, D. D., of Colgate University. The bearers were from the Delta Upsilon society of Hamilton College, of which society Dr. Scovel was a member. A college quartet also sang two selections, "Abide With Me" and "My Jesus, as Thou Wilt," the favorite hymns of the deceased. Dr. Scovel was always an exemplary young man, of fine ability and bright promise. He united on confession of his faith with the North Presbyterian Church of Cleveland, while connected with Wooster University, and by letter with the churches at Cazenovia, Boonville, Lyons Falls and Rock Ledge, Fla. In each of these church connections, as long as his strength permitted, he was active and earnest in labor for the master. His long and heroic struggle against disease, his fortitude under severe suffering, and his steady resignation to the divine ordering of his early death, were evidences of his Christian trust. His early death is a severe blow to his young wife, his parents, sister and brothers; and a large number of friends who have learned to respect and admire him, will cherish his memory with sincere affection.
