1902

ARTHUR HOUSTON CHIVERS, who was the College's oldest living alumnus, died in Hanover on August 7. He was 101.

Arthur came to Dartmouth from Amesbury, Mass., where he was born, and after graduation went on to do graduate work in botany at Harvard, where he took both a master's degree (1904) and a doctorate (1914). He served as an instructor at Radcliffe College in 1905-06 and also at Brooklyn Institute Laboratories on Long Island 1904-06. In 1906, he returned to Dartmouth as an instructor in botany; he became assistant professor of botany in 1910 and was promoted to full professor in 1920. His special interests were bacteriology and plant pathology, and he published a number of studies in those fields. He was a member of Sigma Nu fraternity at Dartmouth, and as a botanist he belonged to numerous professional societies.

Arthur was deeply attached to Hanover, and he served the town and the College in many ways. From 1941-44 he manufactured penicillin for Mary Hitchcock Hospital. He served on the local school board for nine years, the board of supervisors of the check list from 1942-48, and the post-war planning commission and the Hanover board of selectmen from 1948-50. In the late forties, he began mapping the "old" Dartmouth cemetery, a project which became a long labor of love that culminated in a highly accurate six-volume compilation of cemetery records, including a cemetery chart, a diagram of each lot showing the position of each monument or marker, and an accurate reading of every inscription in the 12-acre cemetery. After his retirement in 1951, he presented the six-volume work to the Dartmouth College Archives.

He and Helen Warren were married in 1913 in Keene, N.H., and after his retirement they left Hanover and moved to Meriden, M.H., where Arthur became famous for his gardens. He and Helen had five sons, the youngest of whom, Edward, died in early childhood. Helen died in 1971, and Arthur is survived by four sons, Warren '38, Howard '39, Roland '41, and John '45.

He entered Dartmouth from Wakefield High School, succeeding his grandfather, who graduated from Dartmouth Medical School in the forties. As an undergraduate, Charlie was active and popular. He belonged to Beta Theta Pi and Sphinx senior society. After graduating from Tuck School in 1912, he went to work for Commonwealth Shoe and Leather Company in Whitman, Mass., a manufacturer of highgrade mens' footwear.

In June of 1971 he lost his wife and late, in 1972, Charlie engaged Estelle Paige, a widow, as housekeeper Hardy, companion. Capable, tireless, and devoted, she enabled Charlie to live his years of declining health in the comfort and happiness of home surroundings. They were married in 1978, and she and two grandchildren are his survivors.

Charlie was generous and compassionate, and he had a deep affection for Dartmouth. In his more active years he attended every possible College event. In his death Dartmouth lost a loyal supporter, and your secretary lost a dear friend.
