CLASS OF 1898
Bishop Walter Taylor Sumner started East Wednesday, October 3, and plans to visit New York and Washington, but fears he will not be able to get on to Boston on this trip.
The Secretary was in New York last week on business, and incidentally took in the World's Series games in the afternoon. I stopped with Seelman Thursday night and had a most delightful visit in his beautiful home with his gracious wife and two charming daughters. Seelman plans soon to move his law office from City Hall Square to a new office building now being constructed in Brooklyn. I also called on our good classmate "Fritz" Robbert. It was interesting to note before he discovered my presence what a business-like executive he had become, with many young men coming and going to get his advice and counsel. As soon as he spied me, thirty years rolled away, and he told me a good story in connection with a German examination at Dartmouth in which our classmate Nichols also figured. I rang up Dennis Crowley and had a good chat with him. Ted Leggett was out of the city, and unfortunately I did not have time to get in touch with Elliott Perkins.
