CLASS OF 1898

The Secretary in July stayed over night at the Seaview Hotel on the island of Martha's Vineyard, which is operated by our classmate Montgomery. Let me add, too, that it is operated in a way to give pleasure to everyone who is fortunate enough to get there.

In August the Secretary received a Slice call from Bennis at the Appalachian Mountain Club, where Mrs. Patey and he spent their vacation. They returned that call a little later to Bennis's summer home in West Sullivan, Me. This is an ancestral home, for his mother was a lineal descendant of the Sullivan family of Revolutionary fame for which the town of Sullivan was named.

I had a pleasant call recently on Dick Marcy and Mrs. Dick, and was much pleased to find them looking so hearty and well after a summer in the open on their fruit farm in Lincoln.

The Snow children are both now out of the home. Miss Elizabeth is doing graduate work in Northwestern University and is living in Chicago. Miss Margaret has just entered Skidmore College.

The Secretary's oldest daughter Harriette is a landscape architect of Washington, D. C. His second daughter Philippa is in an artist's studio in Chicago. His son Richard is a freshman in the Wharton School of Business Administration in the University of Pennsylvania.

Let me say right here that I wish the various members of the class would write in what their children are doing, for it would interest us all.

Our missionary classmate, C. E. Clark, spent his sabbatical year in this country, but sailed across the seas while the Secretary was away on his vacation, so I failed to see him. But he wrote some nice letters to his classmates from the deck of his steamer. They were very much appreciated. He spent most of his time in Michigan, and was in his old home in Brattleboro a short time. He is now on his way back to Turkey with one of his daughters.

Secretary, 57 Grove Hill Ave., Newtonville, Mass.
