Portrait and obituary in Annual Report, Association of Graduates, for 1929.

Editor's Note: It is to Colonel Robinson that the graduates are indebted for the task of personally maintaining the Cullum Register records during the years 1911 to 1928. He edited Volume VI in 1920 and initiated the work on the present volume. His devotion to this task undoubtedly shortened by many years his most useful life.
