1900
We regret to report the death, on May 17 at Santa Barbara, Calif., of Harriet, wife of George Tong. . For the. present, at least,, George's address will be c/o Mrs. J. R. Fink, 95 Station Road, Great Neck, N. Y.
Announcement has been made of the marriage, on September 29 at the First Congregational Church in Cambridge, Mass., of Miss Jean Reath Chalmers and Harry LeBaronSampson.
In our October notes, we stated that our records showed that 59 grandsons have been enrolled as students at Dartmouth. We'd let an error of o e go by, firm in the belief no one would catch it, but 59(!) grandsons is claiming excessive superfecundity. Where the 9 came from, we don't know, but 5 is the correct figure.
February 3, 1889 — "The Dramatic Club, under the efficient managership of V. R. Salinger, will present Twelfth Night at Bissell Hall, February 10. This is the first time for several years that Shakespeare has been attempted by Dartmouth students and it will be interesting to see what the boys can do in this difficult role." In the cast the following 1900 names appear: Orsino, Duke of Illyria - Ham; Sir Andrew Aguecheek — D. B. Rich; Sebastian, Brother to Viola - Rankin; Roberto. A Sea Captain - Morris; Maria, Olivia's maid — Murray."
February 10, 1899 - "At a recent meeting of the Football Association, C. G. McDavitt's election as football manager for next year was ratified. S. A. Sampson was elected president of the Association and V. R. Salinger, vice president."
February 17, 1899 — "The many students who, for various inexplicable reasons absented themselves from the performance of TwelfthNight given by the Dramatic Club in the Gymnasium last Friday evening missed a thoroughly enjoyable entertainment.... It seemed, two months ago, an almost foolish thing for college amateurs to attempt a Shakesneare play, particularly under the trying circumstances inseparable from the restricted accommodations of (he Gymnasium.... The general sentiment seems to be that this year's production far surpassed any previous attempts of the club. G. A. Ham played the part of Duke Orsino remarkably well. D. B. Rich and R. F. Leavens in the roles of Sir Andrew and Sir Toby respectively, were most acceptable. As the tough little serving maid, L. Z. Murray made quite a hit."
February 17, 1899 - "H. L. Trull has returned from West Charleston, Vt., where he has been teaching for the past six weeks. He intends to spend a few days at home after which he will resume his college work."
March 10, 1899 - "The annual Smith and Class of 1866 Prize Speaking occurred in the college church Wednesday evening. In original orations, H. LeB. Sampson won first prize and Guy A. Ham of Boston, second. Subject of Sampson's oration was 'Our United Country.' Ham spoke on 'The Lesson of History.' "
March 17, 1839 - "At the annual business meeting of the Dramatic Club held last Friday afternoon, the following officers were elected for next year: President and Stage Mgr., G. A. Ham; Vice President, Leavens '01; Business Manager, V. R. Salinger."
March 24, 1899 — "The Junior Class met in the old chapel Saturday, March 18, and elected the following officers: President, P. J.Gafforio; Vice President, C. T. Miller; Secretary, G. F. Merrill; Treasurer, C. W. Rogers. The subject of a Junior Promenade to be held the week of May 8 was discussed and the plan proposed by the vaudeville management ac- cepted. The committee having the night in charge was appointed by the meeting and is as follows: Merrill, Redington, Virgin, Davis and Ranklin."
