Occasional visitors to Hanover during the summer who called upon the secretary are to be noted as follows. Len Tuttle was at the Follansbee Inn as usual and the secretary had a number of meals with him either at North Sutton or at Hanover. Len finds conditions at North Sutton most pleasant for a summer's stay. Pete Fletcher and his wife made a brief call. As usual he has been very busy with the care and upkeep of his cottages at Stimson Lake. Mrs. Atwood, accompanied by a friend, drove over from Chelsea for a call. On the street the secretary met Arthur Virgin who was stopping in Hanover for lunch. He was taking his sister, who was so ill last winter, from her home in Concord to North Hatley for a visit. Arthur reports a wretched summer due to unfortunate weather conditions. As usual Ben Prescott and Arthur Wallace came to Hanover together for the first football game of the season. Arthur's ideas upon Organic Agriculture, as presented to the New Hampshire Board of Agriculture, were recently the subject of an article in the Manchester Union.
Mr. and Mrs. Carter Harriman Hoyt, son-inlaw and daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert L.Trull gave a party on October 7 to celebrate the 50th wedding anniversary of the elder couple. The congratulations and best wishes of all the class are extended to Herbie and Mrs. Trull on this occasion. Ruth Bean and her husband, the former the daughter of Harry Jenkins and the class baby, celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary on September 2.
Cut Tirrell announces the birth of a grandson, Gregor Owen Tirrell, on September 7. He is the son of Donald and Margaret Tirrell. This is Cut's third grandchild, but the first child of Donald. Cut, now retired, speaks of a busy summer with his garden and lawn. Another recent grandson is Dana Juett Redington, born June 12, the child of Paul Redington's son Edward.
While at his summer place at Cotuit, LoringDodd suffered a coronary attack on August 13. He was soon brought to his home in Worcester and, according to present reports, has since made steady progress toward recovery.
Harold Hastings, who had expected to attend the June Round-Up, was kept at home by the illness of his brother Alfred 'O4, with whom he is living on a farm at Mansfield Center, Conn. Joe Manion, who was also expected, was likewise kept at home through ill health.
The firm of Hutchins and Wheeler, of which Harry Sampson is a senior partner, has moved from its long-established headquarters at 49 Federal Street, Boston to 294 Washing ton Street.
Fred Hadlock takes a live interest in all the affairs of Piermont, N. H., his boyhood home to which he has recently retired. At times he has served as a lay preacher, conducting the services of the community church in the absence of the regular pastor.
While these notes were being written, news was received of the death of Henry N. Teague in the Whitefield (N. H.) Hospital on October z. An obituary notice appears in another section of the MAGAZINE. No one could wish longer life for Henry, because in recent years he has been struggling with a variety of ailments any one of which would have seemed to be fatal to one less sturdy of constitution than he. Upon his return to Hanover from Florida last May, his condition was such that his life hung upon a very delicate thread. The class knows too much of Henry to require elaboration by the secretary. Possessed from undergraduate days o£ many eccentricities, those traits were always the subject of class discussion whenever we were together. No one, however, ever doubted his fundamental generosity or his manifold services to others, particularly to those of college age. With fluctuating financial fortunes, he possessed the business capacity to overcome adversity and to rise superior to it. No one among us had a personality more strongly marked than he. No one will be more missed in the years to come.
Secretary, Hanover, N. H.
Treasurer, 212 Mill. St., Newtonville 60, Mass.
