Edward SPRAGUE, a trustee of Hofstra College, Hempstead, and former marketing consultant for New York City, died yesterday at his home, 87 Harrison avenue, after an illness of nearly two months. He was 67. Mr. SPRAGUE, a descendant of one of the oldest families on Long Island, was born here on a farm that had been in the possession of his family for 200 years. He engaged in farming here for nearly 30 years. In 1926, he sold a large part of his holdings, as the increase in land values made farming unprofitable in the rapidly growing communities along Nassau's South Shore. He was a former auditor for the Town of Hempstead and marketing consultant for New York City. He served as the town auditor for eight years. Mr. SPRAGUE was a director of the Second National Bank of Hempstead and was active in Nassau Masonic affairs. He was the superintendent of the Sunday School of the Baldwin Methodist Church for 30 years. Masonic services were held at his home today. Burial was in Greenfield Cemetery, Hempstead. Mr. SPRAGUE leaves his second wife, Mrs. Albina ZAVIS SPRAGUE, whom he married three years ago. His first wife and two sons, Everett and Wesley SPRAGUE, are not living.
