1904

Mrs. Harrison G. Roby is now living at 4801 Connecticut Ave., N.W., Washington, D. C. 20008 and writes that in the will of her husband, Bill left a legacy to the College and desired it to be credited to the Class of '04. "Robbie" checked it out and wrote Orra Roby that everything was in good order. If any of the classmates of '04 are in Washington, D. C., please give Orra a telephone call or stop by for a visit.

Since the last report we have lost one of our most active members; Ralph Sexton died on July 21. He has not been well for several years. A more detailed report will be in the "In Memoriam" section of this or a subsequent issue.

The Clements Library of the University of Michigan is making preparations to attend one of the auctions of Tom Streeter's famed collections this fall in New York City. The Streeter collection numbers 4,100 books in unusually fine condition. Some have never been offered for sale, others have not been sold for many decades. Interest indicates the transactions will set a new plateau of higher prices for Americana. The Clements Library hopes to secure many of these manuscripts which deal with the period of the settlement of the West in the Ohio Valley.
