Word has been received of the death of Lieutenant Briggs Kilburn Adams '17, of Montclair, N. J., a member of the Royal Flying Corps, who died in a Red Cross hospital from wounds received in action on the Western Front last week.

Adams, who graduated from College last spring, joined the Royal Flying Corps at Toronto, Canada, a few days after Commencement. He was commissioned a second lieutenant last December, and was sent to England at once. A few weeks later he was put on active service on the Western Front. During the summer of 1916, Adams served as a Red Cross ambulance driver.
