Doctor Gunsaulus, prominently identified with Chicago life, first as a 
preacher and college professor and finally as head of Armour Institute, died 
early Thursday morning, March 17, at his home 2919 Prairie Avenue. Doctor 
Gunsaulus was born at Chesterville, Ohio, January 1, 1856. Son of Joseph and 
Mary Hawley Gunsaulus. Married Anna Long of Parsons, West Virginia, September 
20, 1875. J. Ogden Armour pronounced the following eulogy on Doctor 
Gunsaulus. “No eulogy can do justice to Doctor Gunsaulus. His life was one of 
achievement; his success lay in helping others to help themselves. He was a 
wonderful orator, a sound thinker, and a great organizer and, most of all, a 
real man, who leaves the world better than he found it. No one associated as I 
have been all my life, with such a lovable character could be other than bowed 
down with grief at his untimely passing.'' Doctor Frederick Shannon, rector of 
Central Church conducted the funeral services in the New England 
Congregational Church, March 19, assisted by Dr. Charles TV. Gilkey of the 
Hyde Park Baptist Church and Dr. Clarence T. Brown of the Austin 
Congregational Church. Active pallbearers were Philip Armour, Eugene Thomas, 
Charles Stridiron, Alfred Hodge, George Allison and Raymond Thornberg.
