1904

This year marks the 193rd year of the founding of Dartmouth College. The Class of 1904 has been privileged to participate in 62 years of Dartmouth history. The class letter sent to each of you in August was a reminder of the love and loyalty the class has had for Dartmouth through all these years.

Our ranks are constantly being depleted. On August 16 Johnny Watson of Cleveland passed away suddenly of a heart attack at his home. He was one of our most brilliant members, and equally one of the most mod- est men of the Class, and equally, too, one of the most successful as a lawyer, execu- tive and a director in a large number of corporations. John at one time served as President of the Cleveland Alumni Associa- tion and was one of its founders. In 1960 he was awarded the Dartmouth Alumni Award when the Alumni Council met in Cleveland. He was one of the largest con- tributors to the Class Alumni Fund of 1904. For a full account of John, see his obituary in another section of this or a subsequent issue of the Magazine.

Your Secretary has had very few letters of late, except from the Boston gang. CarlWoods is resting comfortably in his West Island home at Fairhaven, and Robbie at his lovely home in South Dartmouth, Mass. Squid Lampee and Sexton are “settin’ and whittling.”

Through Tom Streeter we learn that Cap-tain Hardy of Seattle and Harry Morse, Santa Barbara, Calif., are up and around, but not too spry. Col. Hinman has just fin- ished haying up in North Stratford, N. H., and Webster and his wife, of Randolph, Vt, have been enjoying a trip through Eastern Canada. Pen Mower is resting in a nursing home near Boston and is not in too good condition. Roscoe Smith and Margaret are happy and well in their home in Oroville, Wash.

Whittemore is still handing out millions of dollars to all comers. Ike Maynard has sold his home in Meadow Place, Elizabeth, Me., and moved to Portland. He plans to spend the winter in Daytona Beach, Fla. Bruce Sanborn has been traveling between his office in St. Paul, Minn., and his sum- mer home in Lenox, Mass. Frank Stowell has moved his residence to 999 Michigan Avenue, Evanston, 111. Al Terrien is recov- ering from his illness and is back in his law office at Nashua, N. H.

Matt Bullock, Webster, Walker, Terrien and Hinman got back to Hanover for Com- mencement. None called on Eleazar for shame!
