1890

Your Secretary spent the month of August in Southport and New Brunswick, Maine, and Conway and Wolfeboro in New Hampshire. St. Andrews in New Brunswick was interesting for its famous Golf Course and number of stately residences which reminded me of Newport in its palmy days, and Ministers Island which can be reached by boat and by sandbar bridge when the tide is low. There is a large house built by Sir Isaac Ban Horn which is now unoccupied, but the grounds are kept in order and the cattle and garden products bring in quite a substantial revenue.

In September I was invited to take an auto trip to Washington, D. C. We went down over the Jersey Pike which was not an interesting journey, as the only scenery was the road and fences, but we were able to make the trip in one day. Returning we took a more leisurely route through the Poconos and Catskills and saw much of the damage caused by the hurricane.

So far as any information which I have, the five living graduates and one living non-graduate of '90 are well, but probably, as I am, not looking forward to the coming winter months with any pleasure.

Secretary and Treasurer South Acton, Mass.
