CLASS OF 1907

Richard Hazen died of infantile paralysis in the Homeopathic Hospital, New York City, on the evening of August 13. He was the youngest son of Charles Dana and Abbie (Coleman) Hazen, and was born in Hartford, Vt., July 12, 1887. After graduation he spent two years in the Thayer School, and graduated as civil engineer in .1909. He was a charter member of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity, and a junior member of the American Society of Civil Engineers. For two years he had been in the employ of Hazen and Whipple, consulting civil engineers, New York. In the larger recent enterprises of the firm, at Toronto, Portland, Me., Hartford, Conn., and Brisbane, Australia, he had done original work which was considered of great promise, and in smaller enterprises had been intrusted with an increasing amount of responsibility. He was an assistant in the Yonkers filter construction work in 1909-10, had charge of the plans for the Vassar College sewers, and had accomplished expeditiously and thoroughly since April the surveys for an additional water supply at Yonkers, completing them on August 11. His blameless life, his engaging personality, his admirable record at Dartmouth, and the place he had already won in his profession, make his early death seem the occasion of an irreparable loss.
