Robert J. Hemphill, who, from the year 1849 to 1863, was Secretary to the Board of Controllers of Public Schools, died yesterday at his residence in this city. He entered the employment of the Board as a messenger boy. When Thomas B. Florence relinquished the Secretaryship of the Board, Mr. Hemphill was elected to fill his place. Mr. Hemphill was an active local Democratic politician. When ousted by the fortune that had so long befriended him, he accepted a clerkship in the Highway Department, and at the same time entered into the retail coal trade. He served one term as Chairman of the Democratic City Executive Committee, subsequent to his retirement from the Secretaryship of the Board of Control. He died in the prime of life, leaving a family to lament their untimely bereavement.
