NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Robert W. Cunningham '97 died at his home in Brookline on Sunday morning. He prepared for Harvard at Noble and Greenough's school in Boston, and entered the college at the beginning of last year. He remained at Harvard until the middle of his first year, when he was forced to go to Colorado Springs, as he was suffering severely from consumption. The high altitude of Colorado affected his heart and he began to fail rapidly. In hope of relief he returned to his home again, where he died within a few months. While in Colorado he kept up with his studies, intending, if his health permitted, to enter his class this fall. He was a quiet, conscientious student, with a manly, earnest character and was devoted to his college.

The funeral services will be held at Trinity Church on Wednesday at 2 o'clock.
