Walter Williams Died
|
|
Walter Williams died of cancer at his home on July 29. The funeral was held at the First Presbyterian Church, where Williams had been an elder for 41 years. Columbia stores closed for the funeral; University officials dismissed classes; and tributes poured in from around the world. Associate Dean Frank L. Martin, who joined the faculty in 1909, was appointed dean of the School.
