1898

Will Mitchell writes from West Palm Beach, Florida, that he has had a perfect winter. He has had a fine time with "Johnnie" Warden '00, who with his wife has been wintering and summering there. Will writes that Warden is full of old-time Hanover anecdotes and seems able to recall every Dartmouth man since 1896. Will is now back at his old home in Charlestown, N. H., and working in his flower garden.

Ted Leggett and Mrs. Leggett spent five weeks in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and eleven weeks at West Palm Beach. They are now back at their home in Scarsdale, N. Y., and are being given a "surprise" party in honor of the 35th celebration of their marriage on May 15 by their three daughters. Their first granddaughter was born March 20 to daughter Yvonne: they now have three grandsons and one granddaughter.

Fred Bennis and sister have spent the winter in Santa Barbara, California, but are now back in their lovely summer home at Sullivan Harbor, Maine.

The capacity for hard work by Denis Crowley in a large and important department of the government seems unlimited.

The secretary and Mrs. Patey are rejoicing in the birth of a granddaughter, born to their youngest daughter Barbara on April 27 at Randolph, Vermont.

Charlie Littlefield gave the secretary a telephone ring as he was passing through Boston to his summer home in Maine. It is these contacts that keep class interest alive.

The last call by Agent Jack Spring for a contribution to the Alumni Fund! May every loyal '9B man who has deferred payment thus far hear the summons and do his duty to Old Dartmouth.

The gracious lady who presided in President Tucker's home all the years of our college course was laid to rest by the side of her inspiring husband in April. The class of '98 can never forget those two remarkable personalities.

The secretary expects to return to St. Johnsbury Academy in June, where he graduated fifty years ago.
