the large number Of sympsthizing
friends who gathered at the family
home, 100 Tenth street at 7.30 o'clock
last evening. The services were con-
ducted by DR.. S. G. Logan of this city.
The love and esteem in which Professor
Roney was held was beautifully por-
trayed by the number of floral designs
which surrounded the casket. The re-
mains will be removed on the Is
train this morning to Trenton, N. J.,
for intermant
Professor Roney's life had been wholly
devoted to the interests of education.
He was born at Horsum, near Phila-
delphia, on March 3, 1911. Some tims
ago his health began to fail and ne
went to Waverly, thinking that the
braeing air would act as restorer.
About week after he had returned to
this city he Yves stricken with paralysis.
Doctors Leet. Reynolds, Gardner and
Hermans administered medicines. but
to no avail. He graduated from several
institutions with honor. and became
superintendent of schools here In 1865.
Professor Ronsy retained this position
for twenty years, resigning in favor Of
Professor George w. Phillips. He Ia sur
vived by wife aud one son, H. V. D.
