General Edward deVeauX Morrell,
grand marshal of the Brumbaugh
inaugural parade. member of the
State College and University Council,
identified with the National Guard
of Pennsylvania for years and a fre-
quent visitor to Harrisburg, died
suddenly while on a visit to Colorado
Springs, Col, on Saturday night.
Few Philadelphians have been
better known in Harrisburg and
there were few official functions at
the Capitol or the executive man
sion at which the tall, handsome
general was not present. He was a
man of wide travel and most COM
panionable.
General Morrell was stepson of
the late John G. johnson and a ma
tive of Newport, r. I. He was edu-
Gated at the University of Pennsyl-
vania and was admitted to the bar
of Philadelphia in 1887. He was a
member of Philadelphia Select Coun-
Gil from 1891 to 1894. He entered
the National Guard of Pennsylvania
as colonel of the Third Regiment and
subsequently became inspector gen.
eral and brigadier general, COM
manding the First Brigade.
General Morrell was elected to the
Fifty-sixth Congress in 1900 to fill
the vacancy caused by the death of
Alfred c. Harmer and was reelected
to the Fifty-seventh, Fifty eighth
and Fifty-ninth Congresses.
He was a member of the Phila-
delphia Board of Education for three
years. He resigned from that body
last year, but refused to give any
reason for his action. It is believed
that he resigned because of the fail
ure of the board to adopt the plans
he sponsored for military training in
the Philadelphia Central High and
other schools as part of the national
preparedness movement.
In 1889 he married Louise Bouvier,
a daughter of the late Francis A.
DreXel.
