CLASS OF 1894

Frank Hodgdon has been recently spending some time in New York and vicinity, making his headquarters at the home of Ajax Rollins at White Plains. Frank is steadily convalescing from his recent long and severe illness, and hopes to get back to work in the fall. He and Mrs. Hodgdon expect to spend the summer with his daughter, Priscilla, at Ossipee Center, N. H. In his honor, Nunc Norris got together a group of '94 men at the Dartmouth Club one Friday evening in March. Present: Captain Eugene J. Grow, together with Norris, Martin, Rollins, and C. C. Merrill, in addition to the guest of the evening.

The ministers of '94 came within one of having a complete reunion the second Sunday in April when the Rev. Quincy Blakely of Farmington, Conn., occupied a pulpit in White Plains, N. Y. Frank Hodgdon and Ajax Rollins were in the audience, and in the afternoon they went to dinner at Rollins' house, the absent minister being represented by his better half, Mrs. C. C. Merrill.

That Matt Jones has not lost his former ability to round-up a group of '94 men in short order was disclosed in Boston one day in March when Ajax Rollins called him up around noon, and at six o'clock at the Parker House Matt had assembled Bud Lyon, Charlie Berry, Ted Allen, Curly Bartlett, B. Smalley, and C. C. Merrill to meet the Congregational superintendent of the state of New York.

Another happy '94 round-up took place in Jackson, Miss., one day in April, those being present being Gibbon and C. C. Merrill. Gibbon had to drive one hundred miles in order to make it, but insisted that this was no hardship. His son, Princey Daniel, was with him. Gib is looking more youthful than ever, partly because he has disposed of his moustache, and partly because his interest in and affection for the class of '94 deepens with the years.
