After a long illness Mrs. James N. Pringle died on June 23 at her home in Concord, N. H. Before her marriage she was Eva L. Robbins of Dear Isle, Maine. Classmates attended the funeral. Mr. Pringle is state commissioner of education in New Hampshire.

Hamilton Gibson has sold his house in Evanston, Ill. and has reestablished himself at 415 Peachtree Road, Orlando, Florida. With his son he has a fruit growing development.

Grandsons accumulate and when permitted they bear the father's name. One of the latest is Loren Cameron Mosher born in 1938 in Phoenix, Arizona. Our classmate with his son has real estate and climatic interests in Arizona.

John S. Meserve writes when there is occasion to send a check to the Alumni Fund. John is a very busy doctor in Norwood, Indiana. We have heard with regret that Mrs. Meserve—she was Edith J. Connor of Cincinnati—died on February 15. There are four Meserve sons and son Richard, Dartmouth 1931, with his wife lives with his father.

The secretary last June gave a talk before the Twentieth Century Club in Boston, and was pleased to find that three members of this Brahmin organization were classmates and were willing to sacrifice the afternoon. From this devoted group there was applause. Weld is much interested in his family college, Rollins College, and serves as trustee, I believe. With Mrs. Rollins and Mary, now eight and our youngest, class-child he spent vacation weeks in Berlin, New Hampshire. The three Brahmins are Noyes, Ryan and Rollins.

Theodore H. Bacon has given up his work as director of adult education for the city of Danbury and has accepted the position of pastor of the Congregational church in Redding, Connecticut. He also reports a granddaughter born nearly a year ago to Mr. and Mrs. T. H. Bacon Jr.

Secretary. State Capitol, Hartford, Conn
