Class of 1900

Here is a brief description by Don Tuttle of the great snow which came to the North Country of New Hampshire in the early part of March.

"The past three days I have seen morereal winter and snow than during all thelast ten years put together. Friday morningI left Bartlett at 10 A.M. and landed atLittleton at 5:30. For nearly five hours Isat in sight of the Fabyan House, waitingfor a snow-plow to clear the road so Icould get through. I have never seen ahigh wind blow more steadily nor one thatkept the air fuller of flying snow. Thethermometer was about zero. At the upperend of Crawford Notch there must havebeen three feet of snow, and how it diddrift! In the evening three of us drove toLancaster for a basketball game. There wasjust enough road left for us to get through;on the way back an engine pushing a snowplow missed us by about 25 yards. Yesterday the drive down through FranconiaNotch was one to be remembered, but notto be described unless you have far greaterliterary ability than I. The road was almostpure white and smooth as glass, as theplows had just been through; on each sidethe snow was piled up so that in placesyou couldn't see over it except on an anglethat brought the sky into the picture. Theyhave had some real snow up there at last."

Don hasn't exaggerated the situation at all, but has described it very vividly and accurately.

Word has just been received that Charlie Rogers has been transferred by the New York, New Haven, and Hartford Railroad to the Taunton division. The nature of his work remains the same.

A more recent report from Ben Prescott indicates that his automobile accident was a little more serious than he expected; he had a broken rib. It is, however, mending rapidly and has not caused Ben any great discomfort.

Five members of the class attended the alumni dinner in Boston and were well repaid for their efforts. Ben was among them. This was made possible because of the insurance clean-up which he made after his accident.
