1900

The class will learn with regret of the death of Katherine, wife of Cornelius J. Mahoney, which took place, after a long illness, at the Lawrence (Mass.) General Hospital on October 22. Mrs. Mahoney was the daughter of Michael and Katherine Regan and was a graduate of Abbott Academy and Radcliffe College. For a time she was a teacher in the Lawrence High School. She was married in 1912. During the active years of her life her educational interests were keen. She served as President of the Parent-Teachers Association of Lawrence and was a member of the state association. She was also prominent in the advocacy of suffrage for women and served as a leader in the organization of groups for the attainment of that end. That goal being reached, she turned back to the task of education for citizenship and was for many years prominent in the Andover League of Women Voters. She was also a member of the College Club of Lawrence and a charter member of the St. Clair League. She is survived by her husband, a son and a daughter. The funeral was held on October 25 at her home in North Andover with a requiem high mass at St. Michael's Church.

Mrs. Nathaniel Morse, accompanied by her daughter Nancy, has gone to California to be with her second daughter Mary (U. S. Army) who is serving as a nurse at the Macormack Hospital at Pasadena.

John Mathes has changed his address in Dover, N. H. to R.F.D. No. l.

Mrs. Harry S. Fairfield is also in California, with her son at 1512 East Miredero Avenue, Glendale. She calls attention to a curious situation in the family of her late husband who was one of four sons. His uncle had three sons. No daughters were born to the two families. The progeny of this group of seven now numbers 19, all of them boys except one. This makes a group of 26 made up of 25 boys and one girl.

Everett Goodhue writes that he is comfortably situated at his new position, Principia College, Elsah, Ill. and that his work is going well despite the experience, novel for him, of women students. He is working long hours but liking it.

For freShman and a part of sophomore years one of the members of the class was NathanielC. Thayer Jr. of Chicago. Since he left college in 1898 we have been out of touch with him. Recently two letters have been received which tell of his career. For many years after 1898 he was employed by Marshall Field Company of Chicago. Beginning with 1924 he represented two eastern fabric houses as western sales agent, changing that position in 1927 for one in the Celanese Corporation. After a year in general research and business surveys he joined the Dupont Company in 1932 as advertising manager and fabric development head for one of their yarn divisions. Upon being retired in 1941 because of age limitations, he joined the Burlington Mills Corporation of New York as advertising manager, a position which he still holds. He was married in 1906 to Miss Ida M. Leighton of Sioux Rapids, lowa and has two daughters and two grandchildren. His present address is 280 Bronxville Road, Bronxville 8, N. Y., Apt. 8. He hopes to be with us at our fiftieth, a hope in which we most cordially join.
