1907

The outstanding efforts of all alumni and parents made possible the remarkable success of the 1969 Alumni Fund in the Bicentennial year while in the middle of the Third Century Fund campaign. There were 139 contributors for the Class of 1907, and Bob Kenyon, our head class agent, his workers, members of the class, relatives and widows are to be congratulated.

On Saturday, June 14 your secretary and his wife visited the Kenyons at their new home, 8 Riverside Lane, Concord, N. H., and on Sunday morning Lura and Bob drove us to Hanover for the 1969 Commencement exercises. Bob, Leon Sprague and I were in time for the parade. We enjoyed the speakers, even though it was a wet day.

On Monday we returned to Hanover for the Bicentennial Reunion which was a memorable occasion, and one that we will never forget. Those classmates present were: Edward Ashley, Albert (Rocky) Hazen, Leon Sprague, Phillip Chase and Theora, John Franklin Crocker and Helena, Robert Kenyon and Lura, Ethel and George Grebenstein. The New Tuck Mall dormitory was our headquarters.

On Wednesday we were all guests of Crick Crocker at their South Strafford, Vt., home where an enjoyable luncheon was served.

Bill Smart has been in the Mt. Auburn Hospital, Cambridge, Mass., and is now home again.

Edith and Charles P. Richardson's new address is: Wesley Manor, Jacksonville, Fla. 32223.

Your class president, Jim O'Neil of Lakeville, Conn., writes that he is very well and busy writing another book. He would love to have classmates drop in to see them anytime.

Mrs. Guy R. Merrill, 5 Arlington Street, Cambridge, Mass., died April 16, 1969.

William L. Wildey is living at Colby Hill, Meriden, N. H., and writes that he would enjoy classmates visiting him. Let's do it when you are in New Hampshire.

Classmates having birthdays in October are: Harry C. Whitaker, born October 17,1884; and Harley E. Mann, born October 21, 1883.

One final word, during the week of July 19 Ethel and I spent a few days at AllanBrown's home at Highland Lake, East Andover, N. H. We enjoyed the visit with Allan and his daughter Ethel Lindley. While there the Kenyons paid us a visit. A good time was had by all.

Please keep well and write me often.
