At the time he was instructor the college was under the efficient management of Prof. David Shuck.

By industry and good management he succeeded in accumulating considerable property, spending much of his earnings in the education of his five children His son Griffith is an attorney at Marion, Ind., Hager is a physician at Rushville, this state. His youngest son, James is the well-known salesman at Bert Essex’s, this city. The two daughters Fannie and Ella, are still students at Franklin College. The widow, who survives the deceased, is a sister of David Hager, well known in this county.

Mr. Dean was a man of quiet and unassuming disposition, but ever firm for what he believed to be right. Those with whom he dealt or associated became his friends, for he was always just and honorable. He lived a consistent Christian life, having for many years been a member of the United Brethren Church.
