CLASS OF 1878

Andrews, Dana, Edson, Parkinson, Sanborn, and Sully dined together in New York January 15, and spent a most enjoyable evening, each displaying his old characteristics, and bringing them up to date with reactions upon the present-day world. It was evidently somewhat awry to all of them, but after its eccentricities had been canvassed from the several points of view, the consensus seemed to be that it might, with watching, be allowed to wag on a while longer. Sanborn was host, and entertained the group in royal fashion at his apartment, which itself, in its furnishings and adornments, is to his friends a most interesting expression of the personality of the occupant. The occasion was nothing more than a stray visit to New York of one of the class whose orbit seldom carries him to that vicinity, and those who participated wish to have it distinctly understood that such a stray visit of a classmate to either New York or Boston will henceforth be regarded as an adequate occasion for gathering all the local members of the class, provided notice is given to any of their number far enough in advance for the alarm to be sounded.

George R. Harlow is in government service just now in Philadelphia, but retains his residence in Oberlin, Ohio. He recently paid a flying visit to New York, and lunched with Edson, but coming unheralded met no organized reception.

Lewis Parkhurst is a candidate for election as delegate to the Republican National Convention, and is out with a ringing letter in support of Coolidge and indorsement of Lodge.

Secretary, William D. Parkinson, 22 Howard St., Waltham, Mass.
