CLASS OF 1889

Jonathan Irving Buck died in Boston, Mass., October 7, 1911. Buck, known to his classmates familiarly and fondly as "Johnnie," wras respected and even revered by all for his sterling worth, his independent, just, and clear-cut decisions, and for his entire devotion to duty: we all felt, too, that in him each had a most impartial and loving friend. Since graduation he had devoted his splendid abilities to teaching, first at Hanover, where he was principal of the high school for three years; he then went to Warren, Mass., where he was superintendent of schools until he assumed a like position in Webster, Mass.; following this was a like appointment in Lexington, after which he taught in the Boston schools, being at the time of his death a sub-master in the Mechanic Arts High School. He had not been in the best of health for the last four or five years, and in consequence had devoted himself in the summers to the care of a farm he had purchased in New Hampshire. He returned to his work this autumn, but after some weeks spent at a hospital finally succumbed to a complication of ills as he was being taken to his home in. Lexington. He was born in Harwich, Mass., October 9, 1864. He leaves a wife and five children.
