CLASS OF 1891
The four children of our classmate Plummer, who met death some years ago in the line of valorous professional duty, are all doing admirably. Richard, who has been with the Aluminum Company of America since he completed his course at Tech, has recently gone into the research laboratory of the DuPont Company at Wilmington, Del. He married Dorothy Lawrence, who was with him at the Hanover reunion in 1926. John Plummer is in Harvard Law School, and on completing his course will undoubtedly go into the office of his uncle, Joseph Wiggin, who is Governor Fuller's personal attorney. Elizabeth Plummer is completing her sophomore year at Smith College. She teaches archery in the summer at a girls' camp on Lake Ossipee. Deborah Plummer expects to go to college. Frank Plummer's father, Selwyn B. Plummer, recently passed his 85th birthday, and is hale and hearty.
W. W. Eggleston writes as follows to a classmate under date of May 9: "For the second time in twenty years I shall remain in the East this summer. Plan to get out on short trips around Washington this summer, and put in a month or six weeks in the southern Appalachians in September and October. Last fall I went down through the Shenandoah valley to the mountains of North Carolina, crossed Mount Mitchell with a car; 20 years before, I walked up Mount Mitchell. Also visited Highlands, and spent one night in Great Smoky Mountain park. Went into camp in a pouring rain, and found ice in camp the next morning. You will hardly believe it, but the next day was a beautiful one for collecting plants. Alpine plants stand a lot of cold. One August I camped in the Cascades when the thermometer went down to 20 below and ice formed a half inch on the lake. The next day I collected over 70 plants in flower, and only one of them showed the work of frost."
On Saturday, May 3, Miss Zillah Lee Gray, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Wyllys Gray of 14 Clinton Ave., Montclair, N. J., was married to Reginald S. Hall, son of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel S. Hall of 17 Upper Mountain Ave., at St. Luke's Episcopal church; the wedding was followed by a reception at the Montclair Woman's Club. The bride is a graduate of Kimberley School, Montclair, and Emma Willard School, Troy, N. Y., and is a member of the Junior League of Montclair. Mr. Hall is a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the class of 1922.
Herbert S. Hopkins is now living at 109 East 19th St., Jacksonville, Fla.
