1890

We regret the passing of our distinguished classmate, George H. Moses, an outstanding Dartmouth alumnus, a prominent New Hampshire statesman and a leading member of the United States Senate for many years. Please turn to the In Memoriam section

Nutt is located at Mt. Dora, Fla., for the season. He recently wrote me from Seattle: "I was sorry to learn of Matthewson's death. Older, and dignified, aloof from sports and youthful frivolities, I always sort of looked up to him; I had to, he was taller than I! I lost my devoted wife in July '43, and it has been very lonesome since. When I last saw you at the Hotel Washington here in Seattle one rainy night (remember?) I told you about Triplicate Hearts. Well, we finally produced the game and I am enclosing directions and rules; also a copy of my later invention." .... Mrs. George Mills writes from Bennington, Vt., that she is very well. Her son Charles, a Dartmouth graduate, and his wife, son, and daughter made her a visit last fall Bacon wrote: "I have little to tell. All my interests are in Colombia, S.A., and am waiting for the war to return there. Am doing some war work and am also connected with a company which has a large war contract. I made a trip to Concord last June to see George Moses. I found him as keen mentally as ever. He said, 'When you see me again you will find me right here in my library.' To my way of thinking George H. Moses is the outstanding Alumnus of the Gay Nineties and one of the most talented men Dartmouth ever turned out. Four years ago I was in Washington for six months. There I met some of Moses' contemporaries, who said it was a national misfortune that he was not returned to the Senate. I was asked again and again about his life as an undergraduate in Dartmouth. My son is preparing for Dartmouth and I hope to have him with me if we have a reunion of the members of 'go."

And this from Dr. Billy Morgan, from his "Hideaway," West Springfield, N. H.: "Upon my return here from a trip to Moosehead Lake I find your letter. Matthewson's passing would be a loss to any community or institution with which he was identified." Billy goes on to say he favors meetings, reunions, etc., "as usual." .... Pringle writes as follows: "I think we would all enjoy a reunion on our 55th Anniversary, but the country will be busier then, either by demobilization or finishing hostilities in the Southern Pacific; that is my opinion. As I leased my former residence in Washington nearly three years ago and my wife passed away prior to that, I accepted an invitation from my son William to take rooms at his new house. Therefore my Winter residence is 208 Domer Ave., Takoma Park, Washington. The last of April I go to my summer home at Southport, Me., where I have two acres of land, a house, garage and boat. We have all kinds of fruits and vegetables. When you get your car out and come North to avoid the heat next summer, drop in for at least a day or two and I think you will like our colony of thirteen families at Pine Cliff, a mile from Southport, and thirtyfour miles from Portland."
