Excerpt from The Ohio Educational Monthly and the National Teacher, 1882, Vol. 31: A Journal of Education During the past two years he suffered much from physical prostration, yet he was so elastic in disposition and so forgetful of self that few out side of his own family were aware of the fact. With his characteristic cheerfulness he continued his incessant and ever-increasing labors up to about two weeks before his death when he was attacked by a serious illness which was attended from the first by such alarming symptoms as 'to banish all hope of his ultimate recovery. He died at his home in Salem, on November 22, 1881. He was cut down in the vigor of his manhood, almost with the implements of his toil still in his hands. Such is the brief history of his life. Of the value of that life to the cause of public education time will not allow me to speak at length. Neither can I more than refer to the extensive range and scope of his studies, to his familiarity with Language, History, Mathematics, the: Science of Mind, and the Science of Matter, to his fondness for books, or to the rare and extensive collection which he had gathered and which covered the walls of his working room, from which barely a month ago, he was carried never to return.
