Class of 1844
In the January Magazine mention was made of Rev. Harvey Colcord Wood of Aurora, Nebraska, then the oldest living graduate of the College in years of life, though not in years of graduation. Mr. Wood died at Au- rora, March 19, of heart failure due to old age. Mr. Wood, the son of Asa and Elisa- beth (Wiggins) Wood, was born in Ports- mouth, N. H,, March 25, 1817, and early re- moved with his parents to Lebanon. He re- ceived but scanty preparation for college, and worked his way through -without help from anyone, his parents being poor. August 19, 1844, he was married to Ann Jane, daughter of William and Sarah (Stow) Ellis of Wood- stock, Vt., and went to Newbury, Vt., where he taught in Newbury Seminary for three years. In 1845 he joined the Vermont Con- ference of the Methodist Episcopal church, and was ordained deacon, June 13, 1847, and elder in 1849. In 1847-50 he was principal of Springfield (Vt.) Wesleyan Seminary, and in 1850-4 of Marlow (N. H.) Academy, preach- ing also regularly at the latter place, in 1850-2, and in 1852-4 at Winchester, N. H, In 1854 he went West, and w-as principal of Mt, Carmel (III.) Seminary in 1854-5, and of Danville (111.) Seminary in 1855-7. He was then prin- cipal of Brunson Institute at Point Bluff, Wis., 1857-61. He then lived for seven years at Mauston, Wis., where he was county superin- tendent of schools in 1862 and '63, being the first superintendent of the county. He then taught in the public schools of the county until 1868,. Then he went to Necedah, Wis., and taught a year in the public schools, and then for a year in the Wesleyan Seminary at Eau Claire, Wis. From 1870 to 1873 he taught in the public schools of Chippewa Falls, Wis., and then removed to Evanston, 111., for the better educational advantages of his children. He remained there until his removal to Ne- braska in 1880, and during these last years had taught, preached, lectured, and done other work, continuing active to the last. In his earlier years he had written “The Blind Man’s Son,” an account of his early struggles for an education, which had a large sale and in- spired many a young man to get a college training. His wife died March 28, 1895. They' had twelve children, of whom nine are living. rive sons and four daughters. He also leaves nineteen grandchildren and five great-grand- children. The foregoing is but a scanty out- line of a life of great activity and usefulness.
Class of 1845
Rev. Dr. Samuel H. Willey, vice-president of the College of California, the only living member of the original board of trustees, of which he was secretary, who helped to pave the way for the University- of California, has been a prominent figure in the jubilee festiv- ities of the latter institution, which have just been held. Dr. Willey, who is now in his ninetieth year, went to California as a home missionary in 1849, and has had much to do with the educational and religious development of that great state. He is still hale and vigor- ous, and abounds in reminiscences of his long career.
Class of 1853
Secretary, Rev. Nathan F. Carter, 51 Rumford St., Concord, N. H.
A notable name has been removed from the list of living Dartmouth graduates in the death in Minneapolis, Minn., May 3, of Levi Merrick Stewart. The largest taxpayer in the city and the winner of a fortune estimated at between five and ten millions of dollars, he was a man of many and pronounced eccen- tricities, and the newspapers of the city abound in illustrative anecdotes. He had lived since 1860 in a small frame house in the heart of the business section of the city, and re- sisted vigorously all attempts to get posses- sion of this valuable site for business pur- poses. A typical bachelor, he often spoke of consulting his “wife” on matters of business, and especially of charity, and many people were long in ignorance of the mythical char- acter of this companion. Closely economical in personal habits, often gruff and forbid- ding in outward manner, his right hand care- fully concealed many charities from the knowledge of the left. The data of his life are few. He was born in Corinna, Maine, December 10, 1827, the son of David and Eliza (Merrick) Stewart. His father and grand- father were Baptist ministers, and it was to this fact and his father’s expressed inten- tion that the son should adopt the same voca- tion that the title of “Elder” Stewart early became fastened to him and remained through life. He entered Dartmouth a year in ad- vance, and spent only his sophomore and sen- ior years here, the junior year being taken at Waterville (now Colby) College. After a short experience as teacher, he read law with his brother at St. Albans, Me., and at Har- vard Law School. In 1856 he opened an office in Minneapolis, and was successful in practice, becoming especially expert in the law of real estate. He early began to make investments in real estate, and with such success as has been indicated. At his death he was the own- er of about four hundred pieces of property in that city. By his will he has left the greater part of his fortune to his older brother, with the request that he distribute it for charitable purposes according to his own judgment.
Class of 1856
Secretary, Rev. Franklin D. Ayer, 3739 Wal- nut St., Philadelphia
John Ware Wellington died of Bright's dis- ease at Long Branch, N. J„, February 12, after an illness of two months. He was born in Watertown, Mass., November 22, 1837, being the son of Henry Wakefield and Martha Starr (Small) Wellington, He took the course of the Chandler Scientific Department, for which he prepared at South Woodstock, Vt. ■ Just be- fore graduation he fell from a flagstaff erected at Hanover in the interest of the Fremont and Dayton campaign, and received severe inju- ries, from which he never fully recovered. After some engineering work in the West he entered government employ in 1861, as engi- neer and draftsman in the quartermaster’s de- partment, and after the war, was at times in private and at times in government work until 1869. August 25 of that year he was married at Brewer, Me., to Sarah Abby, daughter of Washington and Sarah Jane Hall, and then went to Indianola, lowa, to enter the dry goods business. Here he remained until 1874. For the next four years he lived on a farm at Or- rington, Me. In 1878 he went to Sanford, Florida, and engaged in orange raising For several years he was land agent for the Flor- ida Land and Colonization Company. Having suffered severe losses by the “freeze,” he re- moved to Jacksonville. In 1900 he visited the Paris Exposition, and journeyed through Ire- land, Scotland, and Wales. In 1901 he was burned out in the Jacksonville fire. After the fire he came North, and was two years in Philadelphia, and then some time in Vine- land, N. J. In June, 1906, he bought a home at Long Branch. In 1906, he was present at the semi-centennial reunion of his class at Hanover. For several years his eyesight had been failing, and at the time of his death he was nearly blind. Mr. Wellington was con- nected with the Masonic order, with the Odd Fellows, the Knights of Pythias, and the Sons of the American Revolution. His wife sur- vives him, without children.
Class of 1857
Secretary, Dr. John H. Clark, Amherst, N. H.

Class of 1859
Secretary, Dr. Edward Cowles, 419 Boylston St., Boston
Daniel Hoit Sherman was born in Sandwich, N. H., September ID, 1840, and died in his na- tive town March 11, 1910. His parents were Enoch Wood Piper and Julia Maria (Hoits Sherman. His preparation was at Daniel Beede’s school at Sandwich, and his course in College that of the Chandler Scientific Depart- ment. He followed the profession of civil en- gineer through his active life. For a short time in 1861 he was professor of drawing in Norwich University. He was chief engineer of the Indiana, Bloomington, and Western Railway for a number of years, residing in Indianapolis, and went thence to Buffalo, N. Y., where he was deputy city engineer. In 1886 he removed to Brooklyn, N. Y., where he was engineer of construction for a gas com- pany. In 1904, because of failing health, he gave up his work in Brooklyn and returned to Sandwich. He was married at Honeoye Falls, N. Y., September 6, 1870, to Cordelia E., daughter of Rufus and Hannah Wealthy (Crocker) Robbins, who survives him. They have had three daughters, two of whom are living.
Class of 1860
Secretary, Rev. Arthur Little, 6 Melville Ave., Dorchester, Mass.
The Class of Sixty was the last to graduate before the outbreak of the Civil War—the last of the “old regime.” It is impossible for the students of the, present generation to under- stand the intensity of the political agitation of those memorable years. There were some men from the South in College at this time. On purely biblical grounds, the sympathies of / President Lord were with the South in de- fense of their “peculiar ■ institution,” The nomination of Lincoln for the presidency threw the whole country into a frenzy of ex- citement, in which Dartmouth College shared. The spirit of loyalty to the Old Flag was splendidly exhibited and maintained by the class of ’6O, and six or seven other classes, during the memorable conflict. Our class started the first College publication, the Aegis.
The faculty was small, but able, strong, in- fluential men, every one of them, of high Christian'"character and engaging personality. A more charming man and accomplished scholar in his department than Professor Putnam never lived.
A more acute, incisive, stimulating, exacting- teacher never sat in a class room at Dart- mouth College than the then youthful Tutor Field—many years later chief justice of the Supreme Court of Massachusetts.
A majority of the class used to teach school in the winter, returning to the College in the spring with a small amount of cash and a large amount of a certain kind of experience.
If there was not a Webster, or Choate, or Chase in our class, unless we are mistaken, we have been, and still are, a splendid average of men. If we have not reached and kept the heights by great men sometimes attained, let it be remembered that a frightful war burst upon the country just as we were beginning to outline our plans for the future, and that, therefore, professional ambitions and careers were not even thought of for a moment. But the class of 1860 has no apologies to offer.
Briefly, here is our record: We entered sixty men, gained twenty-three, lost seventeen, and graduated sixty-six. Since graduation we have done various work, and a good deal of it. After fifty years have elapsed, so far as known, twenty-five or six are now living; but some of our ablest men, the best beloved, are gone. Twenty-one served in the Union Army, of whom, Joab Nelson Patterson be- came a brigadier general, and G. E. Chamber- lin, Geo. H, Chandler, and Oscar A. Hale, lieutenant colonels. One served in the Con- federate army. Foster and Chamberlin died in the service. Eight men became physicians; twelve, clergymen; sixteen, lawyers; eight or ten have been teachers by profession; four- teen hayeoengaged in manufactures, trade, and other forms of business,—a small proportion compared with today. We have not been so well “edited” as many other classes, as few of our men turned to journalism—not one for his main pursuit.
We have been too much dispersed to get back often to our A Imi Ma,tm, but in Frederick Chase, so long the .treasurer of the College, and Lyman B. How, the distinguished profes- sor of anatomy, we have had an honorable share in her immediate service.
It is not invidious to speak of those who have done conspicuous service in the world, not forgetting that the rest may have been as useful and as worthy in their several callings. Least of all should we overlook the fact that death cut short many promising lives before they reached their noon, and that for those now living the record is not closed.
A. S. Bickmore, scientist, professor, explorer, superintendent of the Metropolitan Museum of Natural History in New York, has a world- wide reputation in his chosen field; Henry A. Morrill as advocate, jurist, judge, has placed himself in the foremost rank of American law- yers; John W. Haley has written learned books in theology; Ferguson Haines, busy in manufactures, has found place for the ele- gant pursuits of a liberal education ; Alanson Palmer, for forty years teacher in Brook- lyn, N. Y., has enhanced the dignity of that profession.
Against each name in all the list might be written some word of recognition which would be a just memorial.
Especially grateful would it be to pay some tribute to our dead;—to Rollins, to Brown, to Ayer, to Bancroft, to Thompson, to Pierce, to Charles Little, to Dodge, to Brewster, to Camp, to Hartshorn, to Wilson Palmer, and to others, especially to Frederick Chase, many years the faithful secretary of the class. Had his life been spared, our class history would have been much more complete.
“Finis coronal opus” was the motto of our class. The coronation day is at hand. We have had our chance. We are grateful to God that just this half century has been the time measure of our activities.
“In this grand and awful time To-have been living is sublime.’’
Our hope is that the last years of the class of 1860 may be their brightest, sunniest, and best,

Albert Hezekiah Porter died at Thetford Center, Vt., December 10, 1909, after a long- illness'. He was born in Thetford, September 20, 1843. Before entering College he had seen military service, having been a private in Com- pany G, Tenth Vermont Volunteers, from Au- gust, 1862. About a year later he was wounded in an engagement near the Rapidan river, and in consequence he was transferred to the 86th Company, Veteran Reserve Corps, from which he was discharged October 3, 1864. In College he was a member of the Kappa Kappa Kappa fraternity. After graduation he entered the Thayer School, then just organized, and grad- uated in 1873 as a member of its first class. For the next three years he was professor of mathematics and civil engineering in the lowa State Agricultural College. He then entered upon the practice of his profession as engineer, and for most of his active life was at Cleve- land, Ohio. While in Cleveland he served as president of the Cleveland Engineers’ Club. Several years since the failure of his health caused his retirement from active work and his return to his native town.

William E. Sargent
Of the class that graduated from Dart- mouth in 1884, few men seemed builded for a longer life than William E. Sargent. To have that life closed before it reached the age of forty-nine seems to dash mysteriously our human hopes. As far as medical skill could discover, he fell before a form of meningitis that usually attacks children. It was like a bolt from a clear sky. The strong man of the class fought valiantly for life, and through all his sufferings maintained that gentle and gracious manliness, that always possessed him.
In College he took high rank among his fel- lows at books and in games and in that hearty companionship that gives college life its zest and joy. We all loved Sargent and he loved us.
He taught while in College, and when his college days were over he plunged into this, his favorite work, with that abandon that marked everything he did. While teaching at Franklin, Ni H.,. he found the woman who, as his wife, was ever his joy and pride and a constant inspiration in his life. Two beau- tiful children, a son and a daughter, came to their home. It was, however, in New Bedford, Mass., as sub-master and later principal, that Sargent came forward to his place as a suc- cessful and beloved teacher. Rarely does a man get the confidence and respect and love of fellow teachers, pupils, and citizens as he did. The memorial issued by the school is a beautiful tribute from a city to a real citizen.
The old home farm in Vermont gave the man an opportunity to revel and experiment and to live out of doors ; and to work hard, which was ever his delight. Here he estab- lished a boys’ camp during the summer vaca- tions, for his years knew no rest, save one, when he took a delightful trip abroad with his wife. At his camp he introduced his boys to farm and field and river, to games and tramps and good times: and to a manliness, in him all unconscious, which made a new ideal of life for the boys, fashioned of courage and gentleness. The boy in him never died out. It was a pledge of his immortality.
Beneath the fidelity and success of his work as a teacher and beneath his beautiful unsel- fish home life and his rollicking and inspiring companionship with his boys was his religion, as natural and simple in him as breathing, without show and without fear. It was right to do right, and he proposed to do it.
Measured by its quality and its achievements, the life of William Ervin Sargent was a long one.
He was born August 13, 1861, at Xorwich, Vermont, the son of William H. Sargent and Mary Carpenter Sargent. His early school- ing was of the country type. He attended Thetford Academy, and graduated from Kim- ball Union Academy in 1880. He pursued a classical course at College, taught winter school during freshman year at Chelsea, and also at Pompanoosuc, Vermont, during soph- omore year. He graduated with honors. His work as teacher was done in Bradford Acad- emy, Vermont, and in the Newport, Vermont, High School, in which place he also studied law, in the Franklin, N. H., High School, in the Friends’ School at Providence, R. 1., in the Lancaster, Mass., High School, and from 1900 to his death, he served as sub-master and head-master of the High School at New Bed- ford, Mass. He was president of the Worces- ter County Teachers’ Association, 1888-1889, and president of the Bristol County Associa- tion, 1893-4. He was elected deacon in the Trinitarian Congregational church of New/ Bedford in 1902, and was superintendent of its Sunday school for many years.
He was married August 12, 1892, to Lydia M. Swett, who survives him'with their two children, Jeanette Lovejoy, born October 28, 1893, and Dwight Swett, born July 12, 1896.
Sargent was a student and teacher for thirty years, upholding in all things the highest prin- ciples of his profession, and maintaining every- where in the fullest degree the high standards in education which Dartmouth men have achieved. His career was honest, earnest, and sincere, and we mourn him and will remem- ber him as one of the noblest of men, in whose friendship and association we always found the truest pleasures of life.
