He will never return to Princeton again. He used to live in East CoUege, long since torn down. Some years after he left college, he was told that he had but a few short months to live. He de- cided to live them out at Princeton. One Friday afternoon in the summer of 1897, Horse Edwards arrived in Princeton from Colo- rado. He was very weak from his illness. He could barely raise his hand to wave to the host of old friends who greeted him as he drove from the station to East College, where his o...ld room had been arranged as in his college days for liis return. There he was visited by many friends of the 178 FOOTBALL DAYS old days, who had come back for Commencement. Old memories were revived. That night he at- tended his club dinner, and the following day was wheeled out to the field to see the baseball game, Princeton beat Yale 16 to 8, and his cup of hap- piness was overflowing. On the following Mon- day Horse Edwards died. He told his close friends that as long as he had to go, he was happy that he had been granted his last wish — to die there at Princeton.
