1893

Harry Metcalf has passed on. He died peacefully August 30th at the Carrie E. Wright Hospital, Newport, New Hampshire—of a cerebral hemorrhage which followed a series of mild shocks during the past two years. No member of '93 was more respected or popular and his passing grieves us greatly. '93 was represented at services in Claremont, September 2, by the secretary. (See In Memoriamnext issue.)

A call on Dr. Harry Sanders of Claremont found him well and active. He seems to have recovered from the thrombosis of two or so years ago. His granddaughter keeps house for him.

Regret to learn from "Billy" that Mrs. Jarvis has not been too well this Summer. May the gracious lady soon recover. The Jarvises remained on Jarvis Hill, Claremont, most of the Summer, renting their Cape Cod Summer home at Nauset Beach, Orleans.

Rev. "Shorty" Bowers writes as of July 8, from "Grand View," Nyack, New York that he had spent most of June at Peekskill and in Westchester county, New York. He writes that his health is fairly good; and that his mail address is Fort Plains, New York.

President Cox advises that he entertained the Dodge family in July and that George seemed in good shape and fairly well recovered from his recent illness.

The Manchester Journal of Vermont, June ig, carried a nice picture of Miss Grace E. Griffith and story of her graduation from Smith College with a B.A. degree. Her father and mother, Judge and Mrs. Edward Griffith were in attendance, all which reminds us of a very pleasant call by the Griffiths and daughter "Mary Lou" and her husband Guy Townsend of Rutland, Vermont, on your Secretaryand Mrs. Aborn. They were very joyful over the fact that the Griffiths first grandson had arrived May 23rd—the son of Gould Griffith '35, and Sheila, his wife.

Dr. William JV. Lougee, Secretary of Dartmouth '88, has been kind enough to advise us of the death on June 18 of Mrs. Lucia-Merrill Lougee, widow of our beloved "Doc" Lougee, at the North Conway Hospital.

An early summer call on the Gustins brought out the fact that he had permanently retired after serving only three pastorates durings his fifty years as a Congregational minister. Both he and Mrs. Gustin seemed well and were pleasantly contemplating an automobile trip which would take them Southward and would allow them to visit with relatives in Maryland.

Secretary, R.F.D. 2, Cuttingsville, Vt.
