Excerpt from Princeton, Sixty-Three: Fortieth-Year Book of the Members of the Class of 1863It is painful to announce the death of our Classmate, Andrew Kirkpatrick, which took place from a sudden illness, May 3rd, instant, after these pages were in the hands of the printer. The event was widely noticed in the press with comments on the character, prominence and peculiarities of this very able jurist.Judge Kirkpatrick took a lively interest in this Book and has corresponded freely on the subject, his latest letter having a passage which is of pathetic interest in View of its intimation of a weariness which perhaps meant more than he realised when he wrote of it. The Class Historian had had occasion to mention to him a place here offered for occupancy during the summer months. He writes, under date April 1sth., I have not been able for many years to go so far from. Home that I could not be in daily touch with Newark, and be able to go back and forth for the transaction of necessary business. I therefore go to a nearby place on the sea shore, instead of an inland place such as you suggest. I thank you, however, for calling my atten tion to Cherry Valley, and assure you that in my present rather tired out condition I would be glad of the rest which it would afford.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
