As I start these monthly notes, I am gazing for the moment on the picture heading Tom Ham's class notes in the May issue of this MAGAZINE. Many of these smiling men, women and children are of Tom Ham's blood. Answer next issue, Tom.

In the last issue I gave the list of surviving members of '95. How many of them will be present at the 60th Reunion, I can only hopefully guess. Tommy Thompson has promised to come and I am sure he will keep his promise if he can. So he heads the list.

In March I motored South to Winter Park, Fla. Classmate Austin has been abiding some years at Winter Park. He is a fixture there and is well and favorably regarded. He says he will not be present at our 60th Reunion except in spirit. He is an interesting classmate. He owns acres of wooded land and when he is dressed for church, looks very distinguished. We shall miss seeing him. His record is remarkable and he is far too modest to exploit his ability.

Another classmate living in Winter Park isJoel Harley. He owns a very attractive homethere, but for the past few years he has beenin very poor health and felt at one time thathis last days were near. I called to see himfrequently. He is now full of hope. We hada good time together. Austin and I succeededin cheering him up. I hope he may be able towrite us a letter to be read at the Class Dinner.

Here is a short letter from Dud West:

"It looks now as if I might be able to be present, alone, at our 60th Reunion. Margaret is better than she has been for six months. We have discharged our trained nurse and have a cook come in for the noon meal. I feel so helpless coming to Hanover without my car and I want your advice as to whether I should get a reservation at the Inn I have heard no word from you for a long time but hope to hear that you are well and located in Hartford and not Rochester, N. Y., yet."

Max Norton, the College Bursar, has givennotice that dormitory space must be reservedby May 31. I'm sending to each member aprinted notice. As far as I can now see, I'mlooking forward to having all reuning classmates at my home in Hartford.
