1899

Plans are under way for the 55th at Hanover next June. Suggestion has been made that the program be light. Probably all will agree with that. Other suggestions for consideration by the committee will be welcomed by the Secretary.

The Secretary was pleased to receive at Christmas time from the Cullen Kennedys of Crosse Pointe, Mich., a picture of their three fine sons in a group with their Great Dane dog, a very big fella. Mrs. Kennedy is the former Katharine Calderwood Whittier, daughter of Tom.

The '99 Florida winter residents are in that warmer clime as usual - the Sanborns at their home in Miami Shores, the Kendalls at their home in Sarasota, Charlie and Mrs. Adams at Daytona Beach. John Ash planned to go there, possibly others this scribe doesn't know about.

Tim Lynch went South in the early fall and, as for several years past, is spending some months at the Carolina Hotel at Pinehurst, N. C., famous for its golf links on which Tim plays frequently and in a weekly foursome called the Tin Whistles. A recent report listed him and his partner as tied for second place with a score of 67 in a Better Ball of Pair event.

The bequest of $10,000 by Frank Surrey was paid to the College by his estate in December.

A recent letter from Herb Rogers states: "Art and Tat Irving showed up in Rockport yesterday. We saw them and Art was looking well and must be some better to be able to come here for a visit Our daughter Barbara and husband, Philip, made us a short call the last of September. Philip was a delegate to a convention of controllers at the Statler in Boston." Herb enclosed an item from the Boston Herald reporting the death of Mrs. Harriet Sears, whose first husband was Horace ("Dek") Hardy of our Class who died in 1910. She was graduated from Wellesley College in 1902 and after the death of Horace married the late Charles M. Sears of Boston.

Please send the Secretary some news about yourself, your kin or both.
