CLASS OF 1889

In the last issue of the MAGAZINE it was stated that Ralph Bartlett sailed from New York, June 20, for France, Norway, and other less frequented parts of the world. The Secretary has received several notes from him, the last one dated Moscow, September 12. An earlier letter was written August 12, on the "Stella Polaris," as the steamer was passing Spitzbergen, on the way to the polar ice barrier. The next note was sent from Norway, after his return from his "Farthest North" (for this year). He was headed for Finland and Russia, and expected to reach Boston late in October. Ralph admits that his cameras have been in active service, hence we look forward to another of his unique picture shows.

Dr. and Mrs. Mark S. Bradley of Hartford, Conn., have announced the engagement of their daughter, Anne, to Ferdinand Donald Gordon, of Concord, Mass., who is connected with the Abbey Press at Cambridge.

The June MAGAZINE reported the serious illness of Ozora Davis, for more than twenty years president of the Chicago Theological Seminary. His resignation was accepted by the directors, and on October 1 he became president emeritus. After three months at Lake Sunapee, N. H., Dr. Davis returned to Chicago at the end of September. Although relieved of administrative responsibilities, he will continue to teach in the Seminary and will preach frequently. He is also writing a life of Victor Lawson, now nearly completed.

With renewed vigor, Willis Earle has begun his thirty-second year as teacher in the Erasmus Hall High School, Brooklyn, N. Y. On account of illness last spring, he left before the close of the term, and spent the summer on his farm in North Thetford, Vt.

On October 3, Frost and Doane went to Dover, N. H., and took Redfield away from his post office and carried him to Frost's summer home in Gilmanton, N. H. After two nights there, they went to Hanover, watched the game with Hobart, and then went with Dow for a week-end at his summer home in Woodsville.

Mrs. Ella K. Noyes, wife of Dr. Nathaniel K. Noyes, died at her home in Duxbury, Mass., October 5. While Mrs. Noyes had been in somewhat impaired health for several years, her last illness was brief.

Mr. Justice Wheat and Mrs. Wheat spent July and August traveling in Europe. September was divided between professional duties in Washington and a continued vacation in Marblehead, Mass.
