1888

The class was saddened by the news of the death of Robert Noyes Fairbanks at St. Johnsbury, Vt., August 4. He was our most traveled classmate, and after spending a large part of his life abroad, he returned to pass his final years in his home town among old friends. See "In Memoriam."

Mrs. Fostina Berry, widow of our classmate, Fred S. Berry, has made her home at 360 West Ocean Ave., Long Beach, Calif., since the death of her husband in 1931 at St. Paul, Minn. Her health has been improved by living in a warmer climate.

Mr. and Mrs. Wendell Williams spent several weeks at Wianno Club, Osterville, Mass., during the summer.

Spencer writes from West Haven, Conn., with his usual cheerfulness, although he has had some hospital experience. He finds great pleasure in the college progress of his granddaughter, who begins her junior year this fall at Mt. Holyoke.

While at Hanover in June we met Dolloff Whittemore, younger son of Fred A. Whitternore, who is pleasantly located there and is with Rand's furniture store. He showed us pictures of the popular Dartmouth chair, which has not been available during the war. This idea of a college chair originated with President Lowell of Harvard, who selected one from the various assortments over the years, and had it duplicated in every detail. Over 6000 have been bought by Harvard and the Alumni.

Mrs. Eleazar Cate spent the entire summer at her cottage, at Ocean Point, Me. Her health has been excellent, and she has enjoyed visits from her sons and their families.

We are glad to receive the good news that Rev. John Lew Clark is improving rapidly from his recent severe illness at the Exeter, N. H., Hospital.
