CLASS OF 1879

George S. Long, who died in Columbus, Ohio, January 8, 1921, had an interest in the College and an affection for it equaled by few. He visited Hanover many times, and nearly every fall came East for the purpose of seeing one of the football games. His acquaintance among the alumni was wide, and no one knew him but to love him. Shortly before his death he told his son Frederick (Dartmouth 1911) that if anything happened he wished fifteen hundred dollars paid to the College out of his estate. Frederick has carried out his wishes by contributing five hundred dollars to the Alumni Fund and one thousand dollars to a fund being raised by certain members of the class as a contribution toward the new Athletic Field.
