1890

I attended the two-day meeting of class officers in Hanover, May 8 and 9, and as Dr.Perry Boynton, president, and Clift Humphreys, class agent, were unable to be present, Dr. Gerould and I had a reunion. He was well and apparently happy in his continued research in marine life. He told me he had a confrere on the West Coast, interested in the same subject, with whom he corresponds.

To one who has not been a too-frequent visitor to Hanover in recent years, this visit gave me an opportunity to see something of the remarkable growth of the College and to learn something of the hopes for the future. If I could be allowed to revisit Dartmouth in fifty years, I would expect to find college buildings along the banks of the Connecticut River.

While on vacation in Maine this summer, I had a call from Clift Humphreys. He had just returned from an automobile trip with his daughter through eighteen states and Canada. He is well and still actively engaged in his profession, but turns some of the details over to his son.

During the summer '90 has lost three members, Bacon, Pond and Smith, so we now number eight living graduates.
