1900

Clarence McDavitt, who has been diligent in the search for the families of deceased members of the class, reports in the case of the wife of Henry Lunt, who died in Lewis- ton, Idaho, in 1921. It appears that Mrs. Lunt, the former Mary Elizabeth Metzger, a trained nurse, continued the practice of her profession in Lewiston until 1932 and then removed from that city to the East, where she died some years later.

Those who remember Arthur Virgin as an undergraduate can scarcely reconcile his tastes in those times with any personal congeniality with or fellow feeling for cows. That con- clusion is correct: Arthur expresses in stronger language than this family magazine will allow his entire distaste for personal in- timacy with the bovine race. Mrs. Virgin, however, maintains at Clematis Farm, North Hatley, Quebec, their home, a herd of Jer- seys, who take frequent prizes at cattle shows in the region, such, for instance as the cattle fair at Ayer's Cliff and that at Sherbrooke, where, in each case, three championships were secured by members of her herd this year. One of her bulls is the champion of Stanstead County. The following photograph shows Mrs. Virgin leading one of her cows in a pro- cession of her cattle at Ayer's Cliff:

Walter, son of our "Shadder" Snow, is a frequent contributor of stories to various detective magazines. He is copy editor at the news desk of the merged New York PostHome Nexus, at 75 West St., New York.

In response to a letter written to CutTirrell on the occasion of his seventieth birth- day, he reports from Montreal that he has used his retirement pleasantly and profitably during the summer in running a large garden with good results. His present efforts are de- voted to preparing his house for the Canadian winter—a laudable aim with fuel prices what they are.

George Tong, whose removal from Brook- lyn to California was announced last month, gives as his new address; care of William S. Gaffrey, 2014 Gillespie Street, Santa Barbara.

Col. Teague was unfortunate in sustaining a bad fall during the summer, which kept him in the hospital at Whitefield for a time and ever since has greatly impaired his free- dom of locomotion. Recently he has been a patient at Dick's House in Hanover. He re- ports increased receipts from his Mt. Wash- ington activities this year, with expenses in- creased in rather larger ratio.

Pete Fletcher has been busier than ever this summer, despite the fact that his strength has been somewhat affected by his severe illness last winter. He reports an unusually good garden, sizable repairs at his two cottages at Stimson Lake and a renewed enthusiasm (after something of a lapse) for photography.

Of the Hanover contingent Everett Good-hue, who retired from the Dartmouth faculty in June, has gone to Elsah, Illinois, to take up his new work in teaching economics at Principia College. John Warden departed in September for Florida; again going to St. Petersburg, but to a new address—lB3o 48th St., South. John's son received his degree at Dartmouth in June. Charles Proctor and Mrs. Proctor spent the larger part of the summer in California with their son who is manager of the Yosemite Valley Reservation. Charles re- ports falling into the river with no damage to himself (save his pride) but not to the ma- terial advantage of a new and expensive camera which he was carrying. For the first time in a number of years the Secretary spent his entire summer in the village, finding it by no means an unpleasant place for a so-called vacation.

Occasional visitors to Hanover during the summer may be noted. Len Tuttle spent the whole summer at the Follansbee Inn, North Sutton and Walter Rankin and Mrs. Rankin were there for shorter periods. This resulted in pleasant dinner or lunch reunions at one place or the other at various times. The mem- bers of the class, most of whom are familiar with the Follansbee Inn as the scene of our spring Round-Ups for many years, will be interested to know that the Whitneys have sold the place, so that, if we go there again, it will be under different management. HarryMarshall and Mrs. Marshall, with their foster daughter, were evening callers, staying at the Hanover Inn one night during a trip through New Hampshire in the late summer. They were about to depart for their winter home at Coral Gables. Harry reports that the sale of his new book has been good and that he is now writing another, and so is Mrs. Marshall.

Secretary, Hanover, N. H.

Treasurer, 212 Mill St., Newtonville, Mass.
