In the Necrology section of the January MAGAZINE DOW'S death, on November 23, was recorded. In the "Proceedings of the Bar Association of N. H. for the years 1940-41" which appeared recently, a tribute is paid to our classmate which should be repeated here. For many years he was Justice of the Municipal Court and Judge Sawyer in his memoir said, "Respondents brought before him frequently heaped abuse upon their prosecution and the arresting officer, but never have I heard of one who criticized the result of Judge Dow's conclusion nor the sentence he announced."
Incidentally, the Secretary and Treasurer of the Bar Association is Conrad E. Snow '12.
Mrs. Shirley Eaton reports that her daughter Phoebe is continuing her course in the New York School for Social Work and her position with the Family and Children's Society of Elizabeth, New Jersey. The son, Shirley, is in a defense job which involves the semi-scientific trade of the heat treatment of metals.
Supplementing the note in the February MAGAZINE about Wheat's retiring from his position as Chief Justice of the U. S. District Court at Washington, after thirteen years of service, he continues to live in the Capital City, at the Mayflower Hotel.
The Secretary has received notes from more than a third of the Class recently. Many thanks. Most of them are retired and there is not much copy in their reports, which is fortunate, since "news" from men in the eighth decade of life is too likely to be unpleasant.
