1887

As for many years the customary dinner after the Dartmouth-Harvard game was held with an attendance of twenty. The meet, at first an '87 affair, is now in charge of Dr. Blakely '89 and the attendance as our numbers diminished has overflowed into the nineties. Present were: Watson '83; Burnett, Gage, Junkins and Sanborn from '87; Cate '88; Bartlett, Dr. Blakely and Frost from '89; Sec. Hardy, John McDonald, Ruggles, Dr. Safford from '90; Abbott, Cobb, Lord, O'Brien, Sec. Rowe from '91; Dr. Emerson and Sec. Strong from '92. The after dinner talk included reminiscences, the affairs of the College but centered on the national election, and those present heard much that does not appear in the press. Sanborn gave a five minutes' talk on research made by himself and colleagues.
