Class of 1876

Early in the summer Guy R. Clark and Mrs. Clark motored from their home in Davenport, lowa, to New England and established headquarters in Windsor, Vt., as in recent years. They toured Northern New England through the summer, enjoying the winding roads, the white villages, and other aspects of the region. They were occasionally in Hanover. They called twice on Thayer at his home in North Charlestown, N. H., and they reached Piper at his summer home in Dublin, N. H.

The Ist of September Piper had word from Percy L. Barton (son of H. J. Barton '76) at his home in Washington state, that he was starting East, with a three months' itinerary, and would call at Dublin, September 16, in the P.M. With him were his wife and sister. On the afternoon of the 16th they arrived at Piper's as promised. There had been considerable correspondence for several years (since H. J. Barton's death), and so were acquainted. The call was delightful; the visitors were in no hurry; they were to spend the night at Newport, N. H., H. J. Barton's home town.

George H. Tripp recently retired from his position as librarian in New Bedford. and alone in his home in Fairhaven, has received an invitation from his daughter on the Pacific Coast, to come to her home for a prolonged stay. Numerous letters from librarians he has long and pleasantly known have been a satisfaction.
