1904

Well the Dartmouth boys and girls who vacationed at the Royal Park Inn have all gone home and the Johnsons miss them but it will soon be reunion time in Hanover and many of them will meet again there. Your Secretary regrets that he will not be able to make it this year. It's a long walk.

A letter from Carl says he has arranged for accommodations for any 1904 men who would like to return this June and that the Commencement weekend seems the best time. Anyone who wants reservations should communicate with David Orr in Hanover.

Bull Turner reports that he is as usual but Mrs. Turner is still laid up and unable to walk. Ralph Sexton is quite the proud grandfather, his oldest grandchild - a girl - is a Senior at Winchester High School and hopes to enter Wellesley in the fall and his oldest grandson is a freshman m high school and "entering Dummer Academy next fall.

A letter to Squid from Jimmy Brotherhood gives a new address: 3531 Patterson Road S.E., Grand Rapids (6), Mich. He says he read in the Grand Rapids Press that Hanover got a shaking from a recent earthquake in Vermont and New Hampshire and he's worried that Eleazar Wheelock's tomb might be damaged and Beck Johnson will be passing the hat for repairs.

A recent Bath Daily Times has an article and picture of our Charlie Tubbs taking part in the dedication of a new addition to Bath's Public Library. So you see Charlie is still on the ball.

Squid is going to the Class Officers meetings in May and, if the trip works out OK, will go back in June. Leon Webster is taking over for your secretary at the May get-together. Thanks a lot, Leon.

One of the nicest things that ever happened to your Secretary was the gift from the Class of a beautiful tree for our lawn here in Vero. It's an Aricaria - or in plain English, a Norfolk Island Pine. Robbie was present for the planting and it has a marker at the foot—"Dartmouth 1904." It's both beautiful and unusual. Words cannot express our pleasure and gratitude. Your Secretary has had a session in the hospital but Sally is looking for a beautiful blonde nurse so she can bring him home to sit under the 1904 tree.

This is it - so farewell until fall.
