MCP is very sorry to learn of the death of Christian Habicht. He was a scholar of towering ability and knowledge, yet a very kindly and unassuming author -- always prompt, with minute notes on ms. pages flagging the few corrections to be made. It was an honor to to work with him on "Divine Honors," and we will not forget him.
