CLASS OF 1884
MARCH 1931 Dr. James P. Houston

In the death of Mrs. Esther Williams Carr, wife of Wesley G. Carr, the class of 1884 lost a most valued friend. To those of the class who know her, she will be remembered as a woman of great personal charm. Since her marriage in 1890 she has accompanied Wesley to all the class reunions. In her quiet, effective way she always did much to make these meetings enjoyable. She was a particularly loyal Dartmouth adherent. Her husband and both her sons are Dartmouth graduates. She will be greatly missed by all whose privilege it was to know her.

An intimate friend in her home community has said of her: "Mrs. Carr was a woman of marked personal charm, generous, hospitable, and kind: an ideal wife, mother, friend, and neighbor." One could not visit her home without feeling at once the influence of her kindly, genial presence.

Mrs. Carr was a member of the Twentieth Century Club, the Colony of New England Women, and the Woman's Board of Directors of the Homeopathic Hospital of Pittsburgh, in all of which she did loyal and efficient service. She was a member and faithful attendant of First Unitarian church and Woman's Alliance, where she did her full part in everything with which she was associated.

To her memory the class of 1884 would pay fitting tribute. She was a noble woman, loved her home and family and friends abundantly, and was loved by them in like degree.

For her invaluable service in making our class reunions more enjoyable, thus contributing largely to their success, the class would make willing and loving acknowledgment. To our classmate, her husband, we offer our sincerest sympathy in his incalculable loss
