She is remembered for her essay, published in 1902 and titled What Are the Causes of the Great Mortality Among the Negroes of the Cities of the South, and How Is That Mortality to Be Lessened?In 1915, she was hospitalized for depression, returned to the institute in response to news of Washington's illness (of which he died on November 14), and killed herself by jumping from one of the school buildings' top floor on December 12.Warren and Adella had had nine children; six survived into adulthood. The youngest of these was Arthur C. Logan (c. 1905 -1973). He became a surgeon, personal physician to Duke Ellington from 1937 on, and to Billy Strayhorn. He was the one most specifically honored by Strayhorn's composition "U.M.M.G. (Upper Manhattan Medical Group)", among the founders and partners of the ground-breaking clinic the tune was named for. Marian Bruce (1919- November 25, 1993), who became the wife of Arthur, was a cabaret singer and recording artist, then NAACP activist, Board member of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), Democratic campaign worker, and head of the New York City Commission on Human Rights in 1977-'79. (She appears and speaks in the American Experience 1991 documentary film Duke Ellington: Reminiscing in Tempo) Arthur and Marian had one child, a son, Warren Arthur (born 1963). Adele Logan Alexander is the daughter of Arthur Logan and Wenonah Bond Logan, his wife in a previous marriage.
