CLASS OF 1854

Rev. Charles Caverno had an article in the November number of Popular Astronomy entitled "Notes on Astronomers and Others." Among those who came in for mention were: Ira Young, class of 1828; Charles A. Young, class of 1853; Albert A. Young, class of 1856: Edwin Brant Frost, class of 1886. Dartmouth graduates for two or three generations will place these men in the service and history of science. Albert A. Young was not by profession an astronomer, but he has his standing in science for his astonishing discovery by observation on the crystals of quartz in the Potsdam sandstones of Wisconsin, that where they had been abraded attempt at repair followed the old lines of crystallization. But astronomy reappeared in the mental field of his daughter, Annie S. Young, who is the director of the observatory of Mt. Holyoke College, South Hadley, Mass. Sherman, French, and Company of Boston are to publish at an early date a book by Mr. Caverno, to be entitled "Reminiscences of the Eulogy of Rufus Choate on Daniel Webster, Delivered at Dartmouth, 1853, and Topics Therewith More or Less Related."
