'71 Charles Noble Gregory, dean of the college of law, University of Iowa, has an article, '-Jurisdic- tion over Foreign Ships in Terri- torial Waters," printed in the Michigan 'Law Review. '74 Rev. Win. A. Lyman, who died at Pierre, S. D., January 18, 1904, was born September 29, 1847. He * was for two years and more a soldier in the Civil war; -gradu- ated: from the' University of Wis- consin in 1874. He attended the divinity school at Yale, and was ordained in 1876. He was married to Henrietta Crane. Five chil- dren were born, only one of whom is still living, Mr. Rollo Lyman, now a member of Harvard uni- versity faculty. Mr. Lyman's pastorates have been in Windsor, Wis., Sleepy Eye, Minn., Spring Valley, Minn., Vermilion, S. Dak., Chicago, Ill., Pierre, S. Dak. He has every- where been a man admired and beloved; strong, broad and spirit- ual in his thinking; sympathetic, faithful and inspirational as a pastor; noble and true and Chris- tian as a man. For more than nine years he had been pastor in Pierre. During the yast year his health gradually failed. At his funeral, governor and judges of the supreme court were in the au- dience which filled the building. Supt. Thrall was in charge of the- services, and preached from the- text chosen by Mr. Lyman him- self: Acts 20: 27. -Interment oc- curred at Vermilion, where he- was pastor for seven years. "80 At the memorial service held. for the students of the University of Chicago who died in the Iro-- quois theater fire, appropriate tribute was paid to the memory- of Rev. Henry L. Richardson, U. W. '80, who was one of the- victims of that disaster. The- memorial service was held in Leon Mandel Hall on January 8, 1904; the burning of the Iroquois- theater occurred December 30, 1903. Thomas 5ames Riley,. speaking of Mr. Richardson, said: "Rev. Henry L. Richardson had lived through fifty years. His- boyhood was spent in Berlin, Wis. He was graduated from the Uni-- versity of Wisconsin and fronm Yale Divinity School. He had also studied in the divinity and graduate schools of the Univer- sity of Chicago almost three- years, and had been admitted to candidacy for the degree of doc- tor of philosophy in the depart- ment of sociology.
