Present: Butterfield, Christy, Dun jap, Fletcher, Hadlock, Hastings, Hayden, Jenkins, Piescott, Proctor, Putnam, Rankin, Sampson, Sears, Tuttle, Virgin, Wallace, Woodman the same number as last year. To your Secretary we seemed quite well preserved. He has not available a copy of the Dartmouth Bible and is therefore unable to determine whether Dartmouth goes along with the King James allotment of three score and ten. If it does, we advocate a foot note in any subsequent printing, specifically excluding the Class of 1900 from such a life expectancy table.

Your Secretary thanks the few who have sent him the above notes. While deprecating sloth, he appreciates modesty. If either of these qualities explains the paucity of personal notes which come in, he urges you to look up the Biblical strictures on this subject. If it's just plain modesty, forget it. A secretary can't invent news items.
