was active; for twelve years he was a professor in the 
Cincinnati Law College; for twenty years President of the 
Historical and Philosophical Society of Ohio, as well as a 
member of several other societies devoted to history and 
archeology. His published writings cover campaigns of 
the civil war, biographical sketches and discussions con- 
cerning the prehistoric races and mound builders. In our 
own Academy he was liberal in promoting researches in 
archeology, and in contributing to the progress of the 
organization. 
In character blameless, in the discharge of duty thor- 
ough and uncommonly efficient, and in all relations retiring 
and unselfish, we join his many friends elsewhere in grateful 
acknowledgment of his many services and the living force 
of his example.
