Dr. Marcus Hubbard Corwin died at the Randolph (Vt.) Sanatorium, May 12, after an operation for cancer of the bladder.
He was born in Chelsea, Vt., November 28, 1839 being the second son of Russell and Mary Perkins (Hood) Corwin. He was educated at the local schools, and studied medicine with Dr. N. W. Braley of Chelsea, attending three courses of lectures at Dartmouth.
After graduation in the fall of 1863, he opened practice in Corinth, Vt., whence he returned to his native town in 1880. Though seriously handicapped by deafness, he followed with great vigor almost to the very end the laborious work of the country physician, winning an enviable reputation for faithfulness to his patients.
Dr. Corwin never sought or accepted public office, save that of trustee of the public library of Chelsea. He was a member of the Congregational church.
March 1, 1865, he was married to Ellen Louise Collins of Corinth, who survives him, with a son and a daughter, the son being Rev. Carl H. Corwin '87. Another daughter is not living.
