Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Afterglow Among the young graduates of Yale who have given their lives for their country during the present war, none was of finer spirit and fairer promise, than Captain James Fenimore Cooper of the 308th Field Artillery, who died of pneumonia at Camp Dix, Wrightstown, N. J., on February 17, 1918. A great-grandson of the novelist, and a son of James and Susan Linn (Sage) Fenimore Cooper, of Albany and Cooperstown, Captain Cooper was born at Albany on March 10,1892. He was prepared for college at the Albany Academy and the Taft School, Watertown, Conn., and was graduated from Yale with the class of 1913. As an undergraduate, he won high social and academic distinction: was a member of Alpha Delta Phi, Phi Beta Kappa, Chi Delta Theta, the Elihu Club, the Class Day Committee, and secretary of the Elizabethan Club - a list of honors which will serve as testimony to the range of his literary and scholarly activities, for all who are familiar with Yale life. At the time of his death he held the position of class secretary. He was the first member of his class to die in the service.
