CLASS OF 1890

Twenty-five members of the class of 1890 attended the celebration of the twentieth anniversary of their graduation, during Commencement week: W. T. Abbott, Benton, Bugbee, G. W. Earle, Eaton, Fassett, French, Gerould, Hardy, Hilton, Locke, McDonald, McDuffee, Mann, Mills, Morrison, C. A. Perkins, Rowe, Ruggles, Safford, Sparhawk, Tyler, White, F. D. Woods, and Young. Fourteen of them were accompanied by their wives, and two, Mills and Young, by sons who are planning themselves to go to Dartmouth. All of us, except those resident in Hanover, had rooms at the New Hubbard House, which proved comfortable and convenient, and we got our meals in the College Hall, where a long table was reserved for the class. Most of the men arrived Saturday, and remained until Wednesday afternoon. On Monday afternoon Langill took a photograph of the class on the steps of the Tuck building, and Monday evening after the play the class dinner was served in the College Hall. Each member of the class who was present gave a brief account of what he had himself been doing for the past twenty years and of what he knew of the lives of those who were not with us; a cablegram came from Moses, sending his greetings from Athens, and letters were read from many of the other absentees; and plans were made for our next reunion in 1915. Attendance at the more than usually interesting exercises of the College on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, the exploration of old walks and drives, calls on Bugbee, who was convalescing from a severe attack of scarlet fever, and on the few who are left of the Dartmouth professors of our time, visits to Gerould's laboratories, and reminiscences of the Hanover of twenty years ago, filled our days and nights, and we came away, after the best reunion we ever had, with renewed enthusiasm for the College, and with the determination to make our next reunion one that shall be remembered by her as well as by ourselves.
