1919

Anne Eisaman, widow of Joe, spent Thanksgiving in California, visiting her son, Joe '47, who is in the advertising business in Los Angeles. Muriel Cogswell writes she misses seeing her 1919 friends but has happy memories. The Chet Demonds are in New York City until May 1, when they will go, as usual, to Connecticut.

Helen Reilly's daughter Carol is a nurse at Tufts New England Medical Center. Mike Reilly (Jack's son) and Mary Ellen (Tom's daughter) are both very happy at Dartmouth.

The Treats are at the Smoke Tree Inn in Scottsdale, Ariz., for the winter. Their Christmas card was from a painting done by San and was very lovely.

Waddy Owen is still in Friendship and seems very happy in his native Maine.

Had a Christmas card from Doris Cole, who plans to stay in Beverly for the winter. At least that's the way I understand it.

At a cocktail party recently I met a young Dartmouth man whom Bill Eads had befriended many years ago. At his request I wrote Bill and had a long letter in reply. He goes to the office almost every day but under a great handicap because he is almost blind. Nancy, his wife, also has some physical problems, but through it all they are cheerful.

Harriet Batchelder is still in Salisbury, Conn., and is fortunate to have her daughter living with her and a son, David, across the way. She ran into Edna Werfelman and reports she and Dick are fine and headed for Sarasota. Harriet also says the Bud Welches are considering moving to Salisbury in the spring.

For the next two months Nick Sandoe will carry on this column.
