Howe, George, Dd

Howe, George, D.D.

a distinguished minister of the Southern Presbyterian Church, was born in 1802. In 1833 he was elected by the General Assembly a professor in the theological seminary at Charleston, S.C., and subsequently became president of that institution, which position he retained until his sudden death, April 15, 1883. For half a century his life had been devoted to the great work of training young men for the ministry, and though dead he yet speaks through the living lips of hundreds who went out from this school of the prophets. See (N.Y.) Observer, April 19, 1883. (W.P.S.)
