Several passages in Judge McLane's January letter to the '07 membership on Dartmouth's Bequest Program deserve repetition. Judge notes that '07 is "always given credit for initiative in the early years of the effort to secure bequests for the College." Though he did not say so, Judge pioneered in developing interest in bequests. Then, "I am quite sure," writes Judge, "that we still lead all classes in the participation of members of the class in the program." And again, "... in 1957 we shall celebrate our Fiftieth Reunion, and I have set myself a goal - which does not seem excessive." A note to Judge assuring him of your interest, and, if possible, your tangible support would certainly be appreciated by him.
Harry Storrs carries on as director of one of New York State's largest institutions at Letchworth Village, N.Y. His retirement is scheduled for less than two years away. He and Mrs. Storrs anticipate that they may return to Hanover or its vicinity when retirement is a fact. Their two sons are both married; each has a boy and a girl; and both are medical specialists. Richard is a radiologist in Syracuse, N.Y., and Bob is a pediatrician with the Hitchcock Clinic in Hanover.
George and Mrs. Liscomb have moved recently from Keene, N.H., to Lowell, Mass. Their new address is 33 Columbus Ave., Lowell.
Harold Jennings, whose retirement after over 45 years of service with the Central Maine Power Company was reported last October, was made a director of that company at its November board meeting.
Moses Herman Sanborn, whose death on January 9 is reported more fully in the InMemoriam columns of this magazine, spent most of his life in and near the town of Fremont, N. H. Born there, he attended Sanborn Seminary in that town, and returned there to become a leading citizen. Known by his intimates at Dartmouth as "Spike," he is remembered as a serious, quiet fellow who roomed in Hallgarten.
At an anniversary meeting of the Unitarian Laymen's League of Wellesley, Mas.s., last November, Harold Niles was the recipient of a memorable and heart-warming citation in recognition of his services as a founder and its first president. The citation was in part as follows: "He has held all of the positions of trust within the Society, and in town affairs has played an important role as selectman, member of the school building committees, and many other town committees. A leading citizen is a mild phrase to use in referring to his status. His unselfish devotion to all good causes; his genuine friendship; his willingness to assume or share burdens; his generosity; his application of liberal religious principles to everyday living; these are the things we chiefly honor in him." And then, his fellow-members made him the first honorary president of the Laymen's League!
