OBITUARY. 
Mitchell  G.  Rosengarten,  a  member  of  the  firm  of  Rosengarten  &  Sons, 
died  on  the  morning  of  May  19,  1898,  at  his  residence,  1826  Spruce  Street, 
Philadelphia. 
He  was  the  second  son  of  the  late  George  D.  Rosengarten,  a  native  of  Ger- 
many, who  came  to  this  city  in  1819,  and  in  1822  established  the  chemical  in- 
dustry still  carried  on  by  his  sons  and  grandsons. 
The  elder  Mr.  Rosengarten  died  in  1890,  leaving  five  sons,  four  of  whom 
continue  the  business,  the  fifth  son  being  a  member  of  the  Philadelphia  Bar. 
The  subject  of  this  sketch  was  born  in  Philadelphia,  on  September  10, 
1829  ;  he  was  educated  at  the  school  of  Thomas  D.  James,  and  subsequently 
attended  the  lectures  of  the  Philadelphia  College  of  Pharmacy.  He  studied 
chemistry  under  the  late  James  C.  Booth  and  Martin  Boye,  in  their  private 
laboratory. 
After  working  for  five  years  in  his  father's  laboratory,  Mr.  Rosengarten  be- 
came a  member  of  the  firm,  which  then  took  the  name  of  Rosengarten  &  Sons, 
an  elder  brother,  Mr.  S.  G.  Rosengarten,  being  admitted  to  the  firm  at  the 
same  time. 
Mr.  Rosengarten  took  an  active  part  in  the  business,  made  several  journeys 
abroad,  and  was  frequently  present  at  the  meetings  of  different  pharmaceutical 
and  chemical  associations  in  this  country. 
He  was  married  to  Miss  Emily  Huntsman,  of  Flushing,  N.  Y.,  and  leaves 
three  sons  and  two  daughters. 
Mr.  Rosengarten  was  a  member  of  the  Union  League,  American  Pharma- 
ceutical Association,  Philadelphia  College  of  Pharmacy,  Franklin  Institute  and 
other  organizations. 
Mr.  Rosengarten,  although  living  very  quietly,  was  well  known  for  his 
charities  and  many  acts  of  kindness.  He  had  a  large  acquaintance  with  the 
members  of  the  drug  trade  and  the  pharmacists  and  chemists  at  home  and
