1886

Of the 92 men enrolled in our class, 72 graduated in 1886 and one received his degree later. There were 19 non-graduates. These figures disregard those in the Medical, Thayer and Agricultural schools, but do include the Chandler Scientific.

At this writing (March 8, 1948) eight of these are living. As men of adjacent classes often scan the notes for information of their college acquaintances, I submit the following brief mention of these eight survivors.

Harry B. Burley and wife live at 586 Newton St., Chestnut Hill, Mass. They spend as much time as possible at his boyhood farm in Epping, N. H. He is president and principal owner of the Boston Insulated Wire and Cable Cos. and goes to the plant every day.

Granville K. Howard, a widower, lives at the Howard Hotel in Bartlett, New Hampshire. He recently retired and sold both the hotel and the large general store which he operated there for many years.

William P. Kelly and wife live at 2650 Second Ave., North, St. Petersburg, Fla., between November 1 and May 1. Their summer home is at Greensboro, Vt. In 1934 retired after 48 years spent in teaching and educational administration.

James W. Newton and wife live at 456 East New England Ave., Winter Park, Fla., between Nov. 1 and May 1 and return to New England for the summer with headquarters at Springfield, Mass. He was the N. E. Mgr. of the Yawman-Erbe during most of his active career, retiring in 1931.
