1937

I hope these Notes will reach you during the last week of August, plenty of time to hitch up your horse for a trip to our mini-reunion in Hanover on September 19 and 20. We last of the Mohicans will be there—we hope. Plan to join us.

Vice president Will Brown is full of newsmourning the loss of Mort Berkowitz, remembering Bill Timbers, spending an evening with Lynn Prescott and talking with Sam Dillon, who admits to getting forgetful. Dr. Gene McGregor, who once lived across the hall from me in College Hall, now lives across the retirement complex from the Browns in Concord, New Hampshire. "As a Lisbon, New Hampshire, native, Gene returned there for his life's work as a country doctor. Any town should be so lucky!" I remember Gene being kidded for being from such a hick town that none of us had ever heard of it. Apologies all around.

Natale Brown just enjoyed her 65 th reunion at Smith, which makes her a year younger than the rest of us.

John Detlefsen's daughter, Ellen, sent along some photos from our last reunion.

Between listening to Red Sox games, Bill Rotch reports that Bob McCoy was head usher at the Mort Berkowitz's wedding 50 years ago, but his final phone call reached Mort's home just a few minutes after he died.

See you in Hanover. You be sure now!
