Mrs. Israel Aubey continues to reside in the attractive home where she has spent so many happy years.

There were present at the Boston Alumni Banquet on February 3, Dennis Crowley, Jack Spring, Everett Hoyt and the secretary. The two '98 men who have attended more Boston Alumni banquets than any other '98ers, namely Joe Bartlett and Buck Chandler, were at the last minute prevented from being present. They were greatly missed.

The class of '98 had a table with six '97 men, Rowe, Dr. McPhee, Dr. Harry Chase, Winfield Temple, Morse and Sanborn. A peaceful and happy time was had by all.

The secretary has been reading the January ALUMNI MAGAZINE from cover to cover and has found it very much worth while. On Page 31 he ran across this interesting item at bottom of first column, "A toast was drunk to Zeeb Gilman '63, our oldest living alumnus, who will be 102 years of age next May. Tribute was also paid to Dr. Walter S. Adams '98, the oldest grad present." "Pete" Adams was one of the youngest men in our class.

On and after February 15, Sellman is changing his office to 50 Court St., Brooklyn 2, Mass. Myron Littlefield writes that the '98 letters that were sent at our attempted 45th Reunion sound like Chaucer's "Canterbury Tales." The "Skipper" always had an eye and ear for good literature.

Ed Chandler writes that their son is somewhere in the Pacific and has not been home for a furlough for over a year.

Jack Spring is the new class agent for the Alumni Fund and is anxious to carry the '98 banner to new heights. May all '98 help Jack in his worthy ambition.

Ev. Snow and Ruth are in town for a fortnight and the secretary has had the pleasure of lunching with them. They are enjoying their work at Stratham, N. H., very much. Their younger daughter Margaret with her two lively sons have been visiting them, but has now joined her doctor husband in Washington, D. C., where he is giving the service the benefit of his skill.

Secretary and Treasurer, 17 Fairbanks St., Brookline, Mass.
