DEATH OF ROGER C. PERKINS

The distressing intelligence of the
sudden death on Wednesday of Roge,
c. Perkins, youngest son and child OF
Rev. and Mrs. Sidney X. Perkins OF
this village was received by his par
ents last Thursday morning in a dis
patch from Key West, Fla, where he
had been engaged in naval aviation
work.
Young Perkins enlisted in the Naval
Reserve Force on April 9th, 1917, and
at the time Of his untimely and tragic
death was rated as chief quarter
master, U. S. N. r. F., and as stu
dent naval aviation. He had but re
Gently started solo flying, having gone
to Key West from the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology at Boston
where he had been doing ground train
ing only few weeks since.
From information from Key West it
is learned that the first intimation
that was had that anything was the
matter was when the machine in which
the young man was flying was seen TO
be coming down, from height Of
about 500 feet, nose first. As soon as
this was noticed machines at once set
out for the spot where he was headed
for in the ocean and when they arrived
Roger was dead in the wreckage
On recovery the body was prepared
for shipment to his home here, but or
account Of the great distance and also
the heavy travel at this time on the
Southern railroads it did not reach
New York City until Monday night,
where it was met by the young mans
father, Rev. Sidney X. Perkins, who, |
accompanied by w. X. Hard, had left
Manchester on Saturday evening for |
that place to attend 10 the tranship

Tuesday afternoon the party arrived
here and the body was later brought q

Those Of us who were most closely
associated with Roger in his daily life,
al school. at work and at play, have
ever known that he was clean lad,
strong physically and equally strong
mentally and morally. He was a leader
Of boys and We had great hopes for
his future as a leader Of men. From
the first day he came TO US Of Man.
chester, he was leader. His days at
Burr and Burton Seminary teemed
with work, fitting his mind and body
for the service Of man. In the class
room he was able, thorough and seri-
Gus; in the Y. NJ c. A. and other
school endcavors his energetic activ-
ity, coupled with unbounded cheerful
ness and optimism, was an inspiration
for all; and, on the athletic field, where
he loved TO be, his courage was indom-
liable. There are many instances in
my mind when our Burr and Burton
teams were none too strong, when
Rogers courageous spirit was the
most prominent factor of our defense.
And we watched his work at college
where the same admirable qualities Of
character brought success in the class
room and in the field We were proud
of Roger when he made the Amherst
foot ball team and when he was later
honored by his fellow students with
the managership of base ball. But
were we ever more proud of him than
when lat the first call Of his country,
he was one of those who volunteered
instantly.
Again we watched his progress with
full faith in his strength Of hand and
heart. How easily he became sailor.
How well he was qualified for the ser
vice. How eagerly he took up the
work. He was ready. He answered
the call and we know full well that,
to his last living moment, he measured
up to the full stature of man and
sailor.
To fight for ones country is the
height of honor; to die for ones coun-
try is unhappy, yet, in sense glori-
Gus; but, so to have lived and died
that ones spirit lives and works and
fights through others, is sublime. |
Thus did Roger live and work, fight |
for his country and die, and, we know
full well, his spirit lives. The healthy
influence of his life and service and |
death remains.
Some years ago there was tragic I
death at Burr and Burton Seminary.
We students and teachers, and Roger
was one of US at the time, were grief
stricken at the sudden death of Mar
shall Meacham. But, were we not all
inspired to greater work and nobler
achievement by his manner of life
while with us. And who will say that
.oday, tomorrow and anon, the herit-
lge of our association with Roger, the
.eader, Roger the Courageous, Roger
he Cheerful Worker, will not inspire
is to greater and better work than
We have even been capable Of.
Do we mourn his departure Yes,
eeply, but with what sense Of pride,
With what stimulation of courage, with
shat sense of security for him, in
hat he had so lived that he was pre-
jared to die. And, shell we not be in
uenced to emulate his example, take
p our part Of the work he has laid
own, let his courage and loyalty
reathe new life into our efforts and
hus, as time goes on, by our very
eeds, convince ourselves that Roger
as not died in vain.
