1887
The class book, "Dartmouth '87," has appeared since the October MAGAZINE was printed and has been mailed to the class. In case of non-receipt apply to Junkins for a copy. The cover was designed by Wentworth. There are 208 pages, 12 of preface, 190 of text and 6 half-tones. Of the text 32 pages are given to the fiftieth reunion, 132 pages to biographical notices and the remainder to appendix. The engrossed work of W. S. Ross in the Golden Book is reproduced in color in part of the edition, in black in the remainder. It was printed in Hanover where Junkins could give it close personal attention. Much credit is due to him, also to his efficient secretary, Mrs. Forman. Probably she has spent more hours on the preparation of the manuscript than any one.
Kinney's son is connected with the Federal Reserve in New York and is reported as doing well Gage left for St. Petersburgh, Florida, late in October.
The annual After-the-Game dinner was held at the City Club, Boston, with an attendance of 18. Bayley came in late but made up for lost time. This dinner, started by the class over 30 years ago, became known later as the Eighties Group as near by classes joined; now that the nineties are coming in it may become the Old Timers' Group. Arrangements were made by Dr. Blakely 'B9 and Howland 'B7 presided. Ed Knight's passing, whose attendance in past years added so much to the meeting, brought expressions of sorrow and regret. Howland who attended the funeral services told of the high tributes paid by Knight's professional and business friends whom he met. There was the usual informal discussion and interchange of ideas, perhaps the most valuable feature of these dinners. Attendance was as follows: Dr. Piper '76; Watson 'B3; Bayley 'BS; Newton 'B6; Burnett, Gage, Howland, Junkins and Sanborn 'B7; Cate, Lougee '88; Bartlett, Blakely, Frost 'B9; Hardy, McDonald, Safford '9O; Rowe '9l. It was Dr. Piper's first attendance. Newton brought him in honor of the Doctor's 87th birth anniversary.
