1904

An article, which appeared in the Newark Sunday News of March 13, 1966, presents an outline of the truly remarkable collection of Americana which Tom Streeter collected. These printed classics of the American heritage will be auctioned over a period of four years by the Parke Bernet Galleries, as outlined in Tom's will. Tom not only collected these volumes, but also made notes about each volume as he read it and placed it in its proper historical category. This library illustrates American history from the discovery by Columbus to the gold rush in Alaska, and was stored in a special vault 15' by 10' built in his Morristown home. In 1957 Tom sold his 2,100 collection of Texan books to Yale University. This section of the collection included letters from such legendary figures as Davey Crockett, Sam Houston, and Jim Bowie and the last appeal for help from the defenders of the Alamo. Your secretary is indebted to J. Goodheart '09 for this article.

Albert Terrien has retired from the active practice of law and the Nashua Bar Association presented him with a gift on his 85th Birthday. He and his wife are living at 33 Bowers St., Nashua, N. H., and would welcome a visit by any classmates who stop in Nashua.

Ann Manning writes that she is looking forward to being in Hanover for commencement this June. Roscoe B. Smith has changed his address to 9259 Adobe Road, Twentynine Palms, Calif.

Myron Witham writes "Marie and I had hoped to extend our visit to daughter, Helen, in St. Louis, but an attack, short of bronchial pneumonia hit me in Washington and called for a return to the home base for essentials of recovery for the tone and vigor of carrying on." We are all glad to know that you are back on your feet and next time you start out to visit your daughters, come to St. Louis first.
