1903

Again it becomes our sad duty to report the passing of three classmates. Dog Cushing died in January; Prexie Whelden on April 20; and Nat Batchelder on April 27.

Mat and Prexie were constant attendants at class reunions and other gatherings until poor health kept them away. Dog was around at about everything until military service in World War I interrupted his career. Since that time he more or less dropped out of our affairs.

Charlie and Mrs. Hall report that their son John, whom most of us met at the 50th, is now at El Toro Air Base at Santa Ana, Calif., waiting to be sent to the East. He is a second lieutenant in the marines.

Forrest Hall reports that he is now a great-grandfather. To his grandson and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Richard W. Proper, was born on March 14, James Argyle Proper at Keene, N. H. We hope you have noticed Forrie's articles in the MAGAZINE
