1886

Your secretary has been obliged to postpone the promised class letter because of conflicting duties at home. However, he hopes to issue it in the near future. Many interesting letters were received from the families of deceased members. The College will do well to foster these family loyalties. The generous contnbutions of memorial gifts to the Alumni Fund, especially to our quota, indicates that our families are happy in and proud of the fact that their head was a Dartmouth man. The same is true in many other classes.

Billie Newton has had a hard time ever since Christmas with a severe attack of bronchial asthma which has kept him in the Florida Sanitarium at Orlando ever since, though at this writing he is improving. His eyes have given him trouble also, which condition has curtailed his correspondence considerably.

Granville Howard has sent the secretary a snap shot of himself sitting on the divan surrounded by the son, grandson and greatgrandson of his brother, and our classmate, Elmer Howard. Gran had no children of his own but looks very happy in his role of uncle to this nice group.

We have just learned from Ned Ross's daughter that both Ned and his wife are in pretty good shape this winter. This is good news for all of us.
