CLASS OF 1861
May, 1922 Edward D. Reditigton

Of the graduating class of '61 there are nine members surviving after nearly 61 years. Their average age is 83 years and eight months. Three reside in Massachusetts, one in New Hampshire, one in Florida, one in Illinois, one in lowa, one in Minnesota, and one in Nevada.

There is one president emeritus of a college (Dartmouth), one retired treasurer of a college (Carleton), two retired lawyers, one re tired clergyman, whose avocation is scientific farming, one retired surveyor, two lawyer active practice, and the secretary of the class, who is still in active business.

These survivors lovingly cherish the memory of the large number who have passed over to the majority since graduation, and their thoughts turn often to that member of their group, William Jewett Tucker, still living, who put the strength of his mature life into making the College a national institution instead of one of a largely local character.
