58 THE ALUMNI JOURNAL 



Mr. Dart was of such marked ability that he would have made a success 

 in any business or profession and on a number of occasions was offered lucrative 

 positions with large concerns who needed a man of his stamp, which were 

 always declined on account of his preference for a country life. 



George Dart was a man of the utmost probity and very attractive person- 

 ality. He made friends wherever he went and commanded the respect and 

 esteem of men of all classes. He was very happy in his married life; he loved 

 his home and was an enthusiastic lover of nature. The woods, the hills, the 

 brooks appealed to him. He was an expert with rod and gun and sought relief 

 from the cares of his business in hunting and fishing trips, on which men of 

 high position in the business world were glad to be his companions. 



Mr. Dart as a good citizen took an active interest in public afifairs in Tuxedo 

 Park, was specially interested in the public schools, serving on the school board 

 for a number of years and finally as President of the Board. 



Mr. Dart was a man of broad sympathies, was interested in all good works 

 and especially in the Metnodist Church at Tuxedo, to the support of which 

 and its charities he was a liberal contributor. 



Mr. Dart became a member of this College in 1888 and a life member in 

 1900. He always took a keen interest in his Alma ]\Iater, attending its annual 

 meetings whenever it was possible for him to do so, and sending a number of 

 the young men who entered the drug business in his store to the College for 

 their education. 



Funeral services were conducted at his late residence at Tuxedo on Friday, 

 May 24th, by the Pastor and a former Pastor of the Methodist Church; the 

 funeral was largely attended by neighbors and friends of Tuxedo and from his 

 boyhood home; by employees of his pharmacy, of the Tu.xedo Park Stores 

 Company, also by representatives of the wholesale and retail drug trade, the 

 wholesale grocery trade, and residents of the Park. It was an impressive gath- 

 ering, bearing eloquent testimony to the loss sustained by the death of this 

 estimable citizen, and the high regard in which he was held by his neighbors, his 

 friends and his associates in the business world. 



In his death the members of this College have lost a graduate and fellow 

 member who was an honor to our Institution. We mourn his loss, and order 

 that this tribute to his memory be entered on the College records, and we 

 convey to his family our sincere sympathy in the great sorrow that has come 

 {o them in his decease.
