It is with regret that the Survey records the death of Mr. Emil 
Gunter, one of the co-authors of this report. Mr. Gunter, whose 
unfortunate death occurred at the early age of 31, was trained as 
an electrical engineer, and had his health permitted, would certainly 
have advanced rapidly in his profession. He was a painstaking and 
careful investigator and his work thoroughly reliable. He died at 
New Orleans, where he had gone for medical attention, on August 
15, 1914.
