1887*

Dr. and Mrs. Frank Berry Sanborn, in honor of their golden wedding, received many friends, for four hours, September 81, at their Arlington street home, Cambridge Mass. Among the floral offerings was a spray of large yellow chrysanthemums tied with a broad green ribbon, em- bossed with the words "Eighty-seven" in gold letters, sent by the secretary, in the name of the class. Dr. Sanborn acknowl- edged this tribute, "Ou* fiftieth wedding anniversary brought many surprises—none more than the flowers from 'B7. We did not expect anything of the sort. The chry- santhemums are still in good order—the best looking flowers in our room." The Boston Herald, in the issue of September 82, elaborately reported the festivities, with an excellent picture of the Sanborns.

The Secretary has recently received calls from Drs. Junkins and Howland. "Syd" bears up wonderfully from his affliction of a decade. Howland does not resemble the long, lean, streamlined boy of freshman days. He would win a blue ribbon in any beauty contest. Dr. Brackett has written of his good health from his ocean retreat on Balboa Island in the Pacific. "Sonny" Gage writes from his rural nook, at Atkinson Depot, N. H., describing his patriotic en- deavors: "For defense work, under the air- craft warning service, first fighter com- mand, at an observation post four miles away, every third week, seven days, from 12 noon to 2 p.m."
