1901*

Charlie Howe writes that he has moved from his former home in Richmond, Virginia, where he has resided for many years, to Cary Street Road. This makes the 1901 delegation of Richmond 100% for Cary Street Road, as Doug Vanderhoof lives at 5501, and Charlie at 5006.

George Pingree was out brook-trout fishing just before the Reunion, he slipped on some wet stones and was laid up for sometime with a sprained back; hence his inability to make the Reunion much to his great disappointment.

The Boston Herald of June 20 has the following editorial in regard to Stan Qua's honor at Commencement.

STANLEY ELROD QUA, LL.D,

"None of the honorary academic degrees be- stowed this year on local citizens was better deserved than the LL.D. which Dartmouth gave to Stanley Qua of the supreme judicial court of Massachusetts. It is a solid satisfaction to have a great institution take official notice of a gentleman who is not widely known out- side of bench and bar circles, but is deeply respected and admired there. When he was a judge of the superior court, he was considered by his colleagues, none of whom, we presume, is wholly without ambition, as ideally qualified for advancement to the higher court. The appointment won unanimous approval from them and others. His intellectual qualities and his service since he went to the supreme court have now gained a recognition which will be hardly more pleasing to him than to his unhooded colleagues.

"And it is something, also, to have a court which attracts men of the Stanley Qua type. Our highest tribunal has lost a number of excellent figures in the last few years, but the replacements have been good, without exception. The court ranks as high today as any bench of the kind in the country. It is an admirable illustration of the advantages which we have in our appointive system. Chief Jus- tice Field and Justices Qua, Lummus, Cox, Donahue, Dolan and Ronan are seven answers to those who would throw the court into bitter partisan politics."

The class certainly echos this appreciation.

Word comes that Selwyn Dearborn, after a long hard and serious illness, is back at his practice of looking after the sick and lame in and about Woodsville, New Hampshire, a service he has carried on for many years.
