CLASS OF 1884

The thirty-year reunion of the Class of 1884 was a most pleasant affair. Thirtythree men returned for the occasion, just half a man short of 60% of the living graduates. The men came from every point of the compass. Oakland and Los Angeles, Cal., Phoenix, Ariz., St. James, Minn., Calumet, Mich., Chicago, Ill., Pittsburgh, Pa., Buffalo, and New York City outside of New England were represented in the reunion. The headquarters at South Massachusetts Hall were most satisfactory and convenient. Fred W. Granger 1915, a son of Granger '84, deceased, had charge of the hall, and was unusually efficient in looking after the comfort of '84 men and their families.

The Class Luncheon on Tuesday noon in the small dining room of College Hall was attended by forty-one persons. . .The sons of '84 men at present in College were guests of honor.

The Banquet was held on Tuesday evening at the Hanover Inn. It was an informal affair, followed by the business meeting and the after dinner speaking. This was the high water mark of the reunion, and was characterized' by '84's brand of loyalty and enthusiasm. The men in attendance were: Adams, Bell, Carr, Deßoer, Dinsmore, Elliott,. Eterson, Flanders, George, Hammond, Hatch, Hill, Hodgdon, Houston, Howard, Hulbert, Laird, Lord, Lothrop, McClary, Marden,, Matthews, F. H.
