1889

Your secretary, in his capacity as class treasurer, desires to express his sincere appreciation of. the promptness with which our six living graduate members and our non-graduate member responded in payment of class dues for the current year. Your remittances not only were received within seven days of date of mailing the bills, but all, with one exception, were accompanied by letters or brief notes.

Hiram J. Hitchcock, Kenyon '26, son and only child of our late classmate, is on the Research Staff of The Philip Carey Mfg. Co., of Cincinnati, O. In a recent letter renewing the ALUMNI MAGAZINE subscription for his mother Mrs. George H. Hitchcock, Terrace Park, 0., he writes that the MAGAZINE means a great deal to his mother, also to him, and now that his son George Hiram Hitchcock is at Dartmouth, class of '54, his wife, too, has become a constant reader of the MAGAZINE. Letters also accompanied renewal of other subscriptions on the distaff side of our class family group, all showing an active interest in the MAGAZINE and the news it brings to them. There are seven of these subscribers for the current year: Mrs. E. A. Bliefling, Mrs. Benjamin F. Ellis, Miss Martha Flagg Emerson, Mrs. Jennie D. Henry, Mrs. George H. Hitchcock, Mrs. Nathaniel K. Noyes and Mrs. Burt H. Redfield. All six of the living graduate members receive the MAGAZINE, also Ralph W. Doane, our nongraduate member.

The Harry Frosts were at their home in Swampscott, Mass., during the autumn, after spending the summer at their camp on Crystal Lake in Gilmanton, N. H. Early in November they left for their winter home in St. Petersburg, Fla., where they will remain until next May.

Mrs. Clarence Moulton in September had an accident resulting in a broken wrist and concussion on the back of her head. It did not prevent, however, the observance of Clarence's 89th birthday on September 29, which was honored by a birthday dinner prepared by their daughter who lives with them and contributes much to their health and happiness. Clarence continues to attend in an official capacity meetings of directors of the Montpelier National Bank and Trustees of the Wood Art Gallery, with each of which Howland '87 is also officially associated.

Ralph Doane reports that his business activities are now limited to his endeavor to dispose of his cranberry bog which he no longer is able to give the attention it requires. His principal diversion during the fall has been listening to broadcasts of the world series baseball games and the presidential campaign. He refers appreciatively to the very good neighbors he has. Among them, he writes, is a well-known ecclesiastical painter, who has come from New York to make his home in Harwichport.
