REVIEWS, NOTES AND COMMENTS

 

BY THE EDITOR

 

DR. THOMAS CORWIN MENDENHALL

Dr. Thomas Corwin Mendenhall died at his home

in Ravenna Saturday, March 22. He was a member

of the first faculty of the Ohio State University and a

life member of the Ohio State Archaeological and His-

torical Society. A brief sketch of his life was pub-

lished in the QUARTERLY of the Society for October,

1921. He delivered the annual address at the meet-

ing of the Society on September 19, 1923. This appears

in the October QUARTERLY for that year.

Dr. Mendenhall was one of the leading educators of

Ohio. His reputation was international. He lived to

the ripe age of more than eighty-two years. He was

born at New Garden, Columbiana County, Ohio, October

4, 1821. He was intellectually alert and active almost

to the last day of his life.

We hope in a future issue to publish an extended

sketch of Dr. Mendenhall that will place before the

readers of the QUARTERLY the personality and achieve-

ments of this eminent educator and scientist and most

worthy and respected Ohioan.
