To THE Class of 1899 :
I present herewith a report of your progress from 1909 to
1914. The stories of some include also the ten years prior
to 1909, especially those who did not answer before.
Since 1909, the following have died; Louis Albert
Best, Challis Bowker, Robert Edward Burke, Sher-
man Campbell, Howard Clapp, Thomas Keith Faxon,
Frederick William Harley, Frank Herbert Ford Holt,
Charles Roswell Howe, Joseph Albert Jones, Charles
Robert Lawson, Charles Nicholas McCall, Henry Ever-
ett O'Brien, Max William Oliver, John Morris Rogers,
Jr., George Leverett Stowell, Jr., Louis Thornton Wilson and
Walter Pellington Winsor, Jr. Stories of their lives are in-
cluded wherever I was able to get in touch with any of the
family or intimate friends.
Of those who have not answered nine are lost, as follows:
Francis Victor Alexandre, John Joseph Colbert, Ben-
jamin Taber Creden, Charles William Hardy, Cicero
Adolphus Henderson, Charles McKey, Thomas Stead Ross
Nelson, Ralph Slye, William Couillard Thompson. I should
welcome information as to their whereabouts.
I acknowledge with thanks the assistance of A. Terry of
the College Office in getting information from the records
there, and also with even more than usual emphasis and grat-
itude, the invaluable assistance of Henry Thompson, whose
energetic and most willing cooperation has been indispen-
sable.
In closing I want again to thank all those who by their
prompt answers to my periodical reijuests for information,
help to bring us all closer together and maintain the unity
and enthusiasm which has always characterized our class.
Arthur Adams, Secretary.

RECORDS OF THE CLASS
ARTHUR ADAMS
Born Quincy, Mass., May 20, 1877.
Parents John Quincy Adams, Fanny Cadwallnder Crownin-
shield.
School Hopkinson's School, Boston, Mass.
Years in College 1895-1899.
Degrees A.B., 1899.
Unmarried
Business Banker.
Address (home) Quincy, Mass.
(business) 135 Devonshire St.. Boston, Mass.
In February, 1910, the City Trust Company of which I
was vice-president was consolidated with the Old Colony
Trust Company and I became a vice-president of the latter
company, along with W. B. Donham '99 and J. R. Wake-
field '88. In June of that year I resigned, to take charge
of the Boston office of The American Sugar Refining Com-
pany with the title of Assistant Treasurer. That company
was at the time just beginning to recover from its un-
pleasant situation in the public mind and the people at the
head of it then were able, high-minded and absolutely hon-
est. I took up my duties without any previous experience
in mercantile business but I found the officials and others
connected with the company most agreeable associates, and
the work of reorganizing the office and meeting a new lot of
customers most interesting. After a year and a half how-
ever an opportunity was offered to become vice-president
of The New England Trust Company, the oldest in Massa-
chusetts, which was so attractive that I reluctantly gave up
my connections with the Sugar Company and my resigna-
tion took effect January ], 1912. I took a two months'
vacation, about half of which was spent on a trip to the
West Indies, including two days at the Panama Canal, thence
touching at Venezuela, Trinidad and many of the islands of
Class of 1899 — Fourth Report
the Caribbean Sea. At Trinidad I found Jim Rorer '99 who
was most hospitable and quite unchanged in looks since col-
lege days. On March 1, 1912, I began my work at The New
England Trust Company and am still there. My vacations
have been spent mostly on the water and my interests are
the same as five years ago. I took part in the Spanish
American Sonder Class races in 1910 for the Taft Cup on
the "Harpoon" designed by E. A. Boardman. She won the
cup. I am not married but have three god-children : James
C. Howe, Jr., Frederic R. Nourse, Jr., and Francis B. Rich-
ardson, whose names will be found elsewhere in this report.
Member: Somerset, Tennis and Racquet, Exchange. Eastern

Since writing my story for the last report nothing of in-
terest has happened to me. In 1912, I got much
interested in the Taft and Roosevelt controversy. I
was a hot Taft man, and worked hard for him
here. I was nominated and elected as one of the
alternates at large from the state of Massachusetts
to the Republican convention at Chicago. It will be
remembered that year that on account of there being nine
persons running for the eight places as delegates at large
for Massachusetts pledged to Taft, many votes were
thrown out, because many Taft men voted for nine, when
they should have voted for eight. In consequence of this
mistake, the eight Roosevelt delegates were elected., and I
found myself an alternate for a Roosevelt man. I believe
this is the first time in the history of conventions that this
has happened. At the convention the eight Roosevelt dele-
gates refused to vote for nominee for President, and Mr.
Elihu Root, the chairman, therefore called upon the alter-
nates to vote for them. This was the first time in this
country's history that such a situation ever occurred. I got
my chance to vote for Taft at the convention and I was and
am well satisfied with what little I could do for him. I am
still fond of sailing and go down to Maine each year in my
30-foot waterline sloop "Arabian." Member: Worcester
Club, Worcester Harvard Club, Tatnuck Country Club, Bos-

During the construction of the Cambridge Subway, the

with whom I was associated for five years. Four months
ago, on the completion of the new offi.ce building next the
"Coop." in Harvard Square, my brother and I took a five
room suite, overlooking Harvard Square, and the venture
of medical offices in a business block has proved very suc-
cessful. For the past two years, I have been in charge of
the Cambridge clinic for tuberculosis, and a member of the
Board of Managers of the Association, as well as a director

After the nerve-racking and wrecking days of the decen-

so T bought a seat on the Boston Curb Exchange. It was
such a great contrast, that after three years, I sold the seat
again. On February 3, 1913, I took the greatest step in a
man's life, and was married, thereby escaping the fate which
has been mapped out for some few '99 men. In order to be
true to the class, I am living at Harvard Terrace, off Har-
vard Ave., and shall probably be there when the duo-de-
cennial comes around. As I know the majority of '99 men
smoke, I am now in the cigar business, and ready at any time
to furnish cigars, etc., from four for a nickel up to two dol-
lars apiece. As the smoke of one of ray own cigars has just
gotten in my eye, and caused temporary blindness, I cannot
see to write more, so good night, and as one F. White says
with "Thwee Ninety-Nines and thwee times thwee," I

Since 1909, I have continued the practice of law at the
same place as before. The firm name now is Peabody, Ar-
nold, Batchelder and Luther. In 1909 I ran for the board
of aldermen in Salem, Mass., and was defeated. Since then
I have neither sought nor held public office of any kind ex-
cept that I did serve on a committee to draft a new charter
for Salem, which was enacted into law by the legislature
and was subsequently adopted by popular vote. I am also
a director of the Merchants National Bank of Salem, a
trustee of the Salem Five-Cents Savings Bank, and director
of the Salem Board of Trade and the Civic League of Salem.
In other respects my life has been quite uneventful.

From November, 1907, to January, 1911, I was law libra-
rian of the Law Library of Congress and of the Supreme
Court. Since that date, I have been a director of the Legis-
lative Drafting Association of New York, a non-stock corpo-
ration organized by a group of lawyers devoting their entire
time to an effort to improve the methods of preparing and
drafting statutes. For the past three years, we have been
carrying on in connection with Columbia University a Le-
gislative Drafting Research Fund which has been endowed
for a period of five years. Our work consists of research in
legislation and in the organization and procedure of ad-
ministrative departments, and in the application of the re-
sults of this research to the actual drafting of bills for
legislative committees, individual legislators, public officials,
or private organizations carrying on propaganda in a par-
ticular field. Our purpose is to furnish to such persons
technical aid on the law side in order that the necessary po-
licies may be determined upon by them and, when deter-
mined, may be translated into constitutional, precise and
effective statutes. I have written: "Index Analysis of the
Federal Statutes" (joint author). Member: American Bar
Association, American Political Science Association, Legis-
lative Drafting Association, New York; Cosmos Club, Wash-

with me of any interest in the past five years, I am still in
the same business, live in the same place, do the same

1910, work took me to Europe for about three months, and
again in 1911, I had another three months in Europe, start-

I have not done much of interest the last five years ex-
cept for having taken an active part in several other inter-
national yacht races with Germany, Spain, and Canada, and
I am pleased to say that my representatives on the different
Records of the Class
American teams were also on the winning side. In the
summer of 1909 we raced Germany and the ' ' Ellen, ' ' owned
by C. P. Curtis, '83, won the Governor Draper cup, the
second prize. The next year Mr. Curtis made me a present
of this splendid boat and I certainly had great fun racing
her. In 1910 I designed and steered the "Massachusetts,"
a sjmdicate boat built for the defence of the Seawanhaka
Cup against Canada, in which we were successful in three
straight races. My crew was the finest I have ever had the
pleasure of sailing with, consisting of Eliot Wadsworth, '98,
J. L. Saltonstall, '00, and my brother Dick, '00. If anybody
wants the best, get those boys. That same year I designed
for C. F. Adams, 2d, the sonder boat "Harpoon;" under
Mr. Adams's skilled handling she went through the season's
racing undefeated and topped off by winning in straight
races the President Taft Cup in a series against the Span-
iards. Our secretary, Arthur Adams, sailed with his bro-
ther in this series. I felt pretty good that fall I can tell
you. Again last summer, 1913, I was mixed up in another
international contest. This time against Germany. The boat
was the "Sprig," designed for J. L. Saltonstall and crewed
by "Salty," my brother and myself. We had a very satis-
factory preliminary season, cleaning up the best sonder
class fleet that had yet been built on this side of the pond
and the other for that matter. She had the speed and was
the first selection for the American team. In the final races
for the Wilson Cup against Germany, fate was against us
and we were only able to contribute one first place in five
races, although our team won in straight races. I shall
never quite get over the disappointment of this series, as I
know we had the boat and were unable to show it.
Outside of this excitement, during the summer my life
has been that of the quiet family man, taking the train for
Boston in the morning and returning to my home at Beverlj'-
Farms in the afternoon both summer and winter, since our
decennial. However, enjoying the country as I do this is
not a hardship and I expect to continue along these lines
for some time to come. Member: Somerset and Harvard

Business Architect.
Address (home) 36 West 35th St., New York, N. Y.
For the past five years my residence has been New York
City and during that time I have continued my practice in
architecture with varying successes. In the spring of 1912 I
competed for and won a place on the American fencing
team that represented the United States in the Olympic
games at Stockholm. I was appointed captain of that team
and we crossed on the S. S. Finland with the American
party headed by Col. Robert M. Thompson and James E.
Sullivan. We certainly had a fine trip. After the games
I visited London and Paris and returned to New York
about the middle of August, having been away two months.
This last summer, as the architectural business was very
34
Records of the Class
inactive, I took a long vacation in the woods of Nova Scotia.
During the ten weeks of my stay there I lived in the open
and slept a good part of the time on the ground. We had
good trout fishing and some shooting. At present most of
the architects with whom I am acquainted are quietly wait-
ing for the much heralded business boom that the wise
heads in Washington have promised us. I am working on
a translation into English of the French book Reglement
d'Escrime (Fencing Rules) Fleuret, Epie, Sabre, approved
by the French Ministry of War for the French army. It
will be published by the Amateur Fencers' League of
America and used as a manual by the members of the
league. Member : New York Harvard Club, Technology Club

About four years ago, I decided to discontinue the prac-

to me. At this time an opportunity was offered to join
friends in the development and operation of mining proper-
ties in Mexico. I have been thus engaged up to the present
time. During this period, I have done little that would be
of general interest. Modesty forbids me to tell some of the
things they have done to me. However, as I expect a real
Harvard man for our next president, instead of a Princeton
"debutante," I mav have more details for the next class re-

Since the last report I have had a studio in Boston and a
summer studio in Magnolia, Mass., and devoted most of my
time to portrait-busts and medallions. Our decennial souve-
nir was the first actual medal I ever made, but my work in
this line is now well enough known to be invited to all the
large international exhibitions. The winter of 1910-1911 I
spent in Rome, Italy, where, among other things, I modelled
a 7 1-2 foot figure, representing an ideal type of American
college athlete in the act of rubbing down. While there I
was invited to lecture on the processes of sculpture to the
students of the American Classical School and was able to
illustrate with the bronze casting and marble cutting which
were being done at my studio. I returned to America via
Paris and London for the spring and summer exhibitions.
In September, 1911, I entered a model in a national compe-
tition held by the University of California for the purpose
of selecting a new design for its scholarship medal, and was
unanimously awarded first prize. The Art Commission of
Boston, with the approval of the Mayor, appointed me to
make the four 16-foot figures for the facade of the new Bos-
ton City Hall Annex, on Court St. These statues were
modelled during the summer and autumn of 1913 and were
set in place in January, 1914. They are female figures rep-
45

resenting Justice, Charity, Education, and Industry (to
these I added a '99 baby — look up there, if you don't be-
lieve it!). So far as I know, these are the largest decora-
tive figures to be cast in cement stone. At present I am fin-
ishing the modelling of the bronze doors for the new For-
syth Dental Infirmary for Children in the Boston Fenway;
panels for the children's entrance doors I have already fin-
ished. An interesting commission which I have in hand is
a large bronze tablet in strong relief for the facade of the
new office building of the Fletcher Savings and Trust Com-
pany, of Indianapolis, Ind. Since Janviary 1, 1913, I have
been instructor in architectural modelling at Harvard. I
am now designing a combined studio and house to be lo-
cated on Garden Terrace (opposite the Botanical Gardens)
in Cambridge, and expect to make that my headquarters
after next summer. I have kept up my interest in amateur
acting, largely in connection with the Toy Theatre, Boston,
where I have appeared a number of times. My work has
been shown in the following exhibitions: American Numis-
matic Society, International Exhibition, 1910, (invited) ; In-

ciety, I am interested in family history. Any classmates
who would like abstracts from any genealogy are very wel-
come to ask me to procure them. My father was the thir-
teenth and youngest child of Captain Josiah Burrage of
Leominster and Ruth Kilburn of Lunenburg, Mass. As all
these thirteen children married and had large families them-
selves my relatives are nearly as numerous as the sands of
the seas. My mother's people were Quakers living in Phil-
adelphia, and besides her own name of Love the other
principal names of her ancestors were Evans and Ridge-
way. I keep up my interest in athletics and attend most
of the football, baseball and other games. I am a member
of a small canoe club on the Shawsheen River in Billerica,
Mass., where I greatly enjoy canoeing and camping and the
out-of-door life generally. Next summer I shall be glad to
show any classmates who are interested hoAv near Boston
there can be a spot so wild and secluded. I am taking
a three-year course in Insurance Engineering, similar to the
course now held at Harvard, in which the chief points are
the History and Theory of Insurance, Prevention of Fires,
and Construction of Fireproof Buildings, and the Analysis
of Policy Conditions from the viewpoint of the Loss and of
Court Decisions. I place all kinds of insurance with a great
many different companies. There are two, however,
in which I am particularly interested, the Boston
Insurance Company for fire, marine and automobile
insruance, and the Massachusetts Bonding and Insurance
Company for all the so-called casualty lines. I have re-
cently formed a partnership with Harold C. Read and Graf-
ton W. Potter, under firm name of Burrage, Read and Pot-
ter for the conduct of a general insurance business with
offices at 28 Central St., Boston. Member: New England

operations during the last four years, much of my time has
been devoted to this work. My recreation has been secured
by continuing to further advance the interest of amateur
sports in the Northwest. I have been honored by the elec-
tion as Commodore of the Minnetonka Yacht Club, president
for four years of the Minneapolis Tennis Club, and honorary
member of The Garrick Club of the University of Min-

a permanent home there in the village of Bronxville. In
1911, I was appointed attorney for the Village of Bronx-
County, under retainers from public bodies and others; so
that I now have a branch office at Bronxville. My practice
in New York City shows some tendency to fit my preference
for cases in the courts as distinguished from office work.
In January last, my firm dissolved when Mark Hyman went
into the department of Justice at Washington. I am soon to
go into a new firm for the announcement of which I have
delayed writing this chapter till now, when further delay
is forbidden. I gave the lectures on New York Practice in

I do not know as there is much more to add, beyond the
fact that I am, alas, growing stouter, and a small bald spot
is appearing on my cranium, due I am sure to the ever
increasing difficulty of hanging on to what I have been
able to acquire, by fair means or foul. I am and have been
greatly interested in the movement for better roads and
have been closely associated with the movement in this
state in nearly all of the organizations. I have also been
interested in the better farming movement of the north-
west, and have been closely associated with the movement
in this state. I w^ish also to say that I was lately elected a
vestryman in our church, and I point this fact out with
pride, to show that there is still hope for me. I have not
as yet written any books or plays although I have always
felt it would be an easy thing to do, (perhaps), and any
articles that may have appeared in print under my name
have been reports of talks, political, economical, and other-
wise, that I have attempted to make. I will say that these

I left Harvard the spring of '96 on account of ill health
and wandered around Colorado and Utah for a j^ear. Much
against my will but due to insistence of relatives I entered
the Class of 1900, Rutgers College, of which my grand-
father was a former president. In the spring of '98 I en-
listed in 3rd New Jersey Volunteers, Co. D for the Spanish
American War. I saw no service and was honorably dis-
charged in November the same year by telegraphic order of
the Secretary of War. I was graduated from Rutgers Col-
lege, June, 1900, and engaged in free lance newspaper
work 1900 to 1902. In July, 1902. I accepted a position
with San Diego Union. San Diego, Cal. In June. 1903. I
passed the examination for commission as lieutenant in

year I had command of the Marine Guard on U. S. Prison
Ship Southery at Portsmouth, N. H. ; from April to Decem-
ber of the same year I was attached to the U. S. S. Ken-
tucky, Brooklyn Navy Yard. On December 10. 1904. I

sailed for Colon, Panama, with the Panama Expeditionary
Battalion of Marines, being given command of Company C.
In May, 1905, on account of trouble in Santo Domingo I
embarked aboard the U. S. S. Dixie with a company for
Santo Domingan waters. I returned to the United States in
August of the same year and was attached to the U. S. Re-
ceiving Ship Hancock at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Some
time about January 1, 1906, I was transferred to Head-
quarters Barracks at Washington, D. C. where later I be-
came adjutant of the post. In September, 1906, on account
of insurrection in Cuba, I embarked aboard the U. S. S.
Texas with the 5th Expeditionary Battalion of Marines for
Havana. I was given command of 3rd Company of Casuals,
and invalided home to United States with company Decem-
ber 1st the same year. I resigned on account of ill health
December 18. In the year 1907, I was employed in the
Auditor's office of Los Angeles Ry., Los Angeles, Cal. In
the spring of 1908 I became member of field engineering
force U. S. Reclamation Service, Salt River Project, Phoe-
nix, Ariz. When the field force was disbanded I was made
head timekeeper of various camps along the Grand Canai.
In 1909, I prospected and engaged in various engineering
prospects in the State of Chihuahua, Mexico, and later was
employed in the Resident Engineer's Office G. H. & S. A.
Ry. Co., El Pasq, Texas. The following spring I decided to
go back East and get civilized, and reaching Kansas City,
accepted a position with the Kansas City Southern Ry. Co.,
in the Chief Engineer's office. On March 1, 1911, deciding
civilization was a failure so far as I was concerned I went
to El Paso and offered my services to Francisco I. Madero.
I was sent out to join the revolutionary forces in the State
of Sonora under Juan Cabral. I was the first machine gun
man in the state and later given command of the American
Sharpshooters. I participated in several engagements and
skirmishes. I returned to the United States in July the
same year and became engaged in prospecting and mining
in Southern Arizona, making Bisbee headquarters. I was

August, 1913, Governor Foss appointed me on the Com-
mission to Investigate Drunkenness in Massachusetts and the
best means of correcting or controlling that evil. With my
colleagues we made the investigation ordered and reported to
the Massachusetts Legislature in January, 1914. On Decem-
ber 9, 1913, I was elected mayor of the city of Newton. I
received the Democratic nomination and was endorsed by
citizens. The campaign was a non-partisan one and my op-
ponent was Allston Burr, a Harvard '89 man, who, by the
way, is a mighty fine fellow. It was some contest, but the
'99 men in Newton rallied to my support and put me across
a winner. It was another '99 victory. I was inaugurated
in January and am now on the job. Member: Middlesex

The habit I set myself by writing the voluminous history
of my life for the last report, five years ago, stuck to me for
something over a year, with the result that while assistant
editor of the IMedical Record in New York I literally came
near writing myself to death. At the time of the Decennial
I had just been appointed a clinical assistant in the Vander-
bilt Clinic in New York and had been given charge of a
room in the department of diseases of children under Dr.
Holt, and shortly afterwards was appointed assistant in dis-
eases of children in Columbia University. The manifold
duties of my editorial work, teaching and practice proved
67
Class of 1899 — Fourth Report
a bit too much for me and in the summer of 1910 I was
ordered by my physician to get out of New York and take
a long rest. I came home to Utica, rested up, got perfectly
well (and far too fat for a self-respecting coxswain) saw a
good opening for a children's specialist in Central New
York and settled down in Utica to practice medicine. I am
still here. Some two years ago I became interested in sev-
eral social and philanthropic organizations and have been
rather active since in such matters. At present I am sec-
retary of the Board of Directors and consulting physician
to the Associated Charities of Utica, an association I helped
to organize. I am first vice-president, deputy commissioner,
member of the Court of Honor and surgeon to the Utica
Council, Boy Scouts of America. Two years ago a committee
was organized to help to reduce the infant mortality among
the babies of our poorer districts. I was appointed phy-
sician in charge of the first Utica Babies Pure Milk and
Health Station, and last summer, the work having broad-
ened out along other lines, I was appointed medical director
of the Baby Welfare Committee of Utica. I am treasurer
of the Medical Society of the County of Oneida, a member
of the committee on Medical Research of the Medical So-
ciety of the State of New York, and attending pediatrist
to Faxton Hospital in Utica. After my wanderings in
search of medical experience, I think I am now perma-
nently established in Utica, and any '99 man who drifts
into Central New York will receive a warm welcome if he
will look me up. As the temperature here last week was
twenty-six degrees below zero, the inhabitants of Utica
feel the necessity of living up to its reputation of giving
people warm welcomes. I have written the following articles
for medical and scientific journals since the last report :
^'The Problem of Elemental Life," Science, November 18,
1910; "Sulph-haemoglobinaemia, With the Report of the
First Case in America," Medical Record, December 3, 1910;

T resigned to become resident vice-president, at New York,
of the Massachusetts Bonding and Insurance Company,
which position I now occupy. I am also president of the
Surety Underwriters' Association of New York City. Out-
side of my business experience my existence has been varied
by six or seven trips to the Pacific Coast and Southwest.
I am one of those who have gone back to the soil, living
the simple life from six in the evening until eight the next
morning, on a farm this side of the Connecticut line, in a
hamlet known as Rye, where also dwell several good Harvard
citizens. My days are spent in toil — my nights in rest. Sat-

There is little of a biographical character to add to the
report of the class published in 1909, wherein the name,
"Amanda McLeon Cory," should be corrected to read
"Amanda McLean Cory." I should not insist on this cor-
rection save for the fact that it involves continued pleasant
relations with my mother-in-law. In 1912, I was the Pro-
gressive candidate for Governor of Colorado on the ticket
headed nationally by Theodore Roosevelt, and Hiram W.
Johnson. In that election in Colorado, the Progressive party
won second place, the Republican party running third. Re-
cently, I have announced my expected candidacy for the
same position on the same ticket in the fall of 1914.

During the autumn of 1909 Mr. Arthur D. Hill, the dis-
trict attorney, under whom I was serving was defeated at
the election and his term of office ended in November. How-
ever, as he and I were engaged in the trial of the so-called
"steel conspiracy eases," a trial which lasted by the way for
13 weeks, we were appointed special counsel for the Com-
monwealth to finish the trial. On November 26 I took the
oath of office as assistant secretary of the treasury under
Secretar.y MacVeagh, and in the middle of December, upon
the completion of the steel case trial I went to "Washington
and took up my new duties, under a recess appointment.
Some time in January or February, 1910, my regular ap-
pointment was confirmed by the Senate. My assignment in
the department was the supervision of the collection of the
revenue from customs. I continued in this position through
[the Taft administration and up to August 1, 1913, under
President Wilson and Secretary McAdoo, when my resigna-
tion was accepted. During 1911 I was investigated by a
committee of the House of Representatives owing to a
muckraking article which had been published about me in
Pearson's Magazine. However, the committee, although
politically opposed to the administration, failed to find any
gold dust or "long green" sticking to my person. During
(the period I was connected with the customs service we
succeeded in clearing up most of the large fraud cases and
also in reorganizing the service so that the number of in-
82
Records of the Class
dependent collectors and districts was reduced from 162 to
49. After leaving tlie treasury department I took

expenses, but not profits (if any) with Harry Sherburne.

at that time distinctly inimical to new-comers of "Western

some and over-studied I suddenly yielded to a long-time

in June, 1899. I spent three months trying to convince my
dear good father that the only way to cure the severe
nostalgia which had taken possession of me would be nine
months of Memorial Hall diet; or, the family as well
as '99 would soon have cause for mourning. The result was
positive. I came back to Cambridge until June, 1900. when
much to my sorrow — though not desperate. I left again, for
the Northwest where I spent several months driving stakes
for the Canadian Pacific R. R. Thence I came to Cuba and
served with locating and construction parties building the
Central R. R. along the Island. 1901 found me again in
New York to recover from another little touch of nostalgia.
In May. 1901, I came back to Cuba and entered the Govern-
ment Service as assistant engineer of Public Works. In
May, 1904, I went to St. Louis, Mo., as government dele-
gate to the Good Roads Convention held in connection with
the exposition. I went again in September as technical com-
missioner to the St. Louis Exposition. I took part in fencing
events at the Olj'mpic games and won the broad sword
championship ; also with Van L. Post, of New York, and
Ramon Faust, of Paris, formed part of the team which won
the foil championship. I was appointed chief engineer of
Santiago Province in 1905 ; in 1906 acting inspector general
of public works ; in 1911 city engineer ; and finally in Octo-
ber, 1913, chief engineer, district of Havana. As you can
«ee there is nothing scandalous about my record one way or
the other. Above all things I have never been and am not a
politician — in the bad sense — of course- We have organized
a Harvard Club in this town in which at present I hold the
office of secretary. I regret to say that it has not shown
much activity due to the reduced number of members and
their being scattered throughout the Island ; we do manage
to gather around the festive board once a year to give three
cheers to Percy D. and other mighty pillars of Fair Har-
vard. Blessings to ye all from your classmate.

I am still holding the same job, namely, president and man-
ager of the Hawaiian Pineapple Company, and am vice-
president of the Haiku Fruit and Packing Company, Lim-
ited, a concern engaged in the same kind of business on the
island of Maui, one of the Hawaiian group. Since the de-
cennial, the two concerns have together packed 2,530,000
cases of canned pineapple or over 60,000,000 cans, and as
this is a commodity the price of which has gone down rather
than up. and therefore has not tended to increase the cost
of living. I have managed to keep fairly busy.

ambitions are, first, to land a "best seller" for the house;
second, to put over one of my own. For some time, I have
99

been devoting my spare hours to writing magazine fiction,
of which I have found a market for a part — enough to en-
courage me to go on. I haven't tackled a novel yet, being
now in the ''novelette" stage, but I have hopes. This year,
I have been teaching Business English in Boston University
College of Business Administration. I tried keeping chick-
ens at one time — had incubators and brooders and setting
hens and all the rest — and my friends took to calling me
"Hen." The name still sticks, though I have long since
disposed of the chickens. I hate to talk about myself, but
it's kind of fun to write something the editor's fairly sure
to print. I have written: "Random Notes of Boston," six
historical chapters, with illustrations by J. A. Seaford, 96

1 am practising law for a living, and working in the So-
cialist party and local politics as a means of making condi-
tions better for people than they are. The Socialist move-
ment in Dallas is a vital and growing force ; it has fur-
nished me keen incentive, ample opportunity for expressing
what individuality I have, has "broken up" no homes so far
as I know, and produced neither anarchy nor "dividing
up" in this locality. There were several books, as I
thought, and many scholarly articles seeking to be written
by me when I left college, but my energy has been spent
otherwise — in the not less intense though less distinguished
work of a Socialist agitator. About the only offices of honor
I have held are in the Socialist local. I have many friends
and acquaintances among the working class of people, and
105

Class of 1899 — Fourth Report
In the spring of 1910, I took charge of my firm's Boston
office. A year later, an opening occurred in our London
office, and feeling that foreign experience would be inter-
esting and valuable, I sailed for Europe in July, 1911.
While in England, I lived at Sevenoaks in Kent, where the
life was most enjoyable. Six months in England showed it
would require a long residence there to do business success-
fully, so I went to France, where business conditions were
more favorable. I made my headquarters in Paris, where
my son was born in June, 1912. "While there, I made busi-
ness trips to Belgium, Holland, Germany, and Austria, and
a pleasure trip to Switzerland. In December, 1912, I re-
turned to New York. In February, 1913, I went back to
Paris, for a four months' trip to get my successor started.
Since June, 1913, I have been in charge of one of the de-
partments of my firm's business in New York. My firm is
Niles-Bement-Pond Company.

manufacturing business, which I have been in since, until

Looking back upon the five years that have passed since
the last account was written, I cannot recall that during this
time my name has appeared often in headlines, — either of
the Boston Transcript, or yet of the Police Gazette. If I
have not served my country mightily in the view of the
whole American people, neither have I made myself con-
spicuous as an undesirable citizen. (Of course no one would
be so innocent as to suppose that by any process of evolu-
tion, or of involution, any '99 man could become an unde-
sirable citizen ; nevertheless I have thought it well to parade
this point). No, the only crimes of which I am knowingly
guilty are my failures to attend past reunions of the class
of '99. In respect to these I throw myself upon the mercy
of m.y generous classmates, who know how sufficiently I am
punished by my remorseful reflections upon what I have
thereby missed. Shortly before our decennial it happened
that I married a wife, and therefore, (like the man in the
parable), I could not come. I fear that after these fifteen
years verj^ few of my old class would now recognize me,
not that time has much altered my appearance, — for 1 am
told (Alas!) that this is not the case, but lest it has effaced
me from their memories. Yet with God's help, — and my
wife's, who has given her consent, — I shall be in Cambridge
for the great quindecennial. And I trust that when they
hear this my gentle classmates will not feel obliged to come
to the round-up provided with shock-absorbers, nor clad in
their wall-climbers and ten-league boots. Member: Harvard

You will pardon my delay in answering, but I have been
in hopes that a belated inspiration would enable me to write
something that might be interesting to the other fellows, but
the effort fails me. The truth is that my practice has gone
along in about the same usual course. I am using the same
desk, the same pen and the same waste-paper basket (dilapi-
dated but useful) as when I started my practice. I have
made more friends than clients, among whom I number more
debtors than creditors. And I will add that while I am
not married, I still have my appendix, which are perhaps
two things to be thankful for. All in all, the world seems
bright and cheerful, especially today, which is the first pleas-

Perhaps my long vacation spent in answering tlie call of
the wild that came from New Brunswick, in the fall of 1908,
had an unsettling effect upon me. At any rate, on May 10,
1909, I left the Chicago office of Goldman, Sachs and Com-
pany, and devoted my energies to improving my game of
golf. After collecting a number of souvenirs of the game, I
concluded to return to the business world. In February,
1910, as a beginning, I acted as bond salesman for AUerton,
Greene and King, then newly established. In June, of the
same year, I transferred to the Chicago office of Plympton,
Gardiner and Company, New York specialists in railroad
bonds. After gaining an additional six months' experience
with them, in December, 1910, I opened an office under my
own name for the purchase and sale of investment securities,
and since that time, though the general investment business
has been said to have been somewhat quiet, I am gratified
that each succeeding year has shown me a substantial im-
provement over the preceding one. Member: Harvard Club

amusement was work, although I found a little time for
baseball and tennis during the summer. Baseball consisted
of games between the Harvard and Yale Clubs of Seattle,
and I am glad to say that in the three games in which I
took part, the Elis Avere always on the wrong side of the
score when the game ended. In the summer of 1909, I won
the tennis championship of the state of Washington, and
also the International Doubles with Sam. Russell, a Yale
man, as my partner. In August, 1910, I was transferred to
Zillah, Wash., as agent for the North Yakima and Valley
Railway, where I remained until March, 1911. I was then

The years since 1909 have passed, outwardly at least, very
uneventfully. Middlesex School continues to be the field
of my labors, which include the teaching of mathematics
and German, the coaching of hockey, tennis, and minor
football teams, besides the manifold incidental questions
and problems which are continually arising. The life, in
spite of its isolation and apparent narrowness and mo-
notony, is one of great diversity of interest. It would be
hard to find a more wholesome mode of life, for it not only
gives an opportunity for, but almost demands, participation
in many forms of outdoor sport. The long vacations offer
a delightful opportunity for change, which ordinarily I use
largely for reading and study. From 1910-1912 I was presi-
dent of the Association of Mathematical Teachers in New
England.

1 have lived on Staten Island (Richmond Borough, New

New York Bar in 1901, I have practised law in New York
€ity ever since that date. I was active in politics from 1900
down to 1905. I performed active service on the legal staff
of the state superintendent of elections, investigating and
prosecuting offences against the elective franchise in New
York City, during a period of four years or more. Later
I served a further four years as an assistant corporation
counsel of the City of New York. This was a civil service
appointment pursuant to competitive examination. Since
withdrawing from politics, I have practised law exclusively,
specializing on corporation accounting, financing and con-
veyancing, also taxation and public utilities generally. I
have written nothing for publication except a few news-
paper articles upon political and economic subjects. I
belong to no clubs and hold no offices of honor or trust
except the treasurership of the Staten Island Unitarian
Church of which I have been a trustee for about nine years.
I belong to numerous charitable and civic organizations,
and for many years was vice-president of the local Chil-
dren's Society.

I entered '99 in its senior year and always felt more or
less a stranger as far as class events were concerned tho'
many '99 men whom I have met after graduation have
urged me to go along with them on these important occa-
sions. My senior year with '99 was much like a freshman
year for me as I stayed in Cambridge in the Graduate School,
teaching three years in the college, and entered the Law
School, graduating in 1906. An apprenticeship in the office
of R. W. Hale and work for Professor Stimson gave me a
start in the practice of law, and later a partnership was
formed with Jackson Palmer '05. In 1910, this was dis-
solved, the of&ce at 6 Beacon St., Boston, being continued by
me. During the same year, I leased the "Sonthboro Arms,"
then building, as a side issue. Whether I shall remain per-
manently in the hotel business (which is very attractive to
me) is just now undecided.

Address -^2 East 81st St., New York, N Y.
Soon after our decennial, I began, in cooperation with
other physicians, to work out methods for reducing the
infant mortality. Work similar to ours at the Hill Mater-
nity Clinic, was almost simultaneously but independently
done elsewhere. The practical result of these various en-
deavors has been a marked reduction in the infant mortality
in New York City in the last five years. In the autumn of
1910, ill health compelled me to give up my work. In Colo-
rado Springs, where I spent two years, I was enabled, as a
132
Records of the Class
member of the Rocky Mountain Harvard Club, to have
some pleasant times with the western Harvard men. I also
renewed my memories of History 13 during Professor Hart's
term as Exchange Professor at Colorado College. Last sum-
mer I made a trip, mainly on foot, through parts of Scot-
land, Wales, and England ; in the course of which I did not
neglect visiting the Harvard house at Stratford. Two of
our classmates had registered there the day before my visit.
Tf ever the class finds it has more money than it can use, a
present of some Harvard literature and photographs would
satisfy the curiosity and stimulate the interest of many
visitors to whom our college is little more than a name.
South wark Cathedral, a yet worthier Harvard memorial,
still lacks the bronze doors to the Harvard Chapel. At pres-
ent I am doing research work at the University of Wiirz-
burg. I find time, however, to study the customs of the
German students here ; and have been gratified to learn
that they uniformly regard Harvard as "the" American
University, though their ignorance of our ways is even
more profound than is the American student's lack of
knowledge concerning German university life.

I have continued the drab existence of a suburbanite —
slave to the eight o'clock train in and the five o'clock out.
In between those tyrant hours (save on blessed Saturday),
and on the only job I ever held, I have through the media of
news items bulletined with alacrity and editorial comment
ground out more sluggishly and painfully (to readers, too),
sought to help elucidate for a very sophisticated clientele the
plots, mysteries, intrigues, secrets and riddles of the most
fascinating serial of modern literature — the ticker tape. Ab-
sokitely the only personal adventure to variegate this im-
personal handling of alien happenings was an inglorious one
last fall, into our local politics as a school committee candi-
date, being nosed out (I'll have to confess) by a '98 man.
The only consolation (the voters needed none) w^as that the
yellow flag distanced us both — ^thanks to votes of women by
women for a woman, who led the ticket. [On his promotion
to be an Associate Editor of the Boston Ncavs Bureau on
January 1, 1911, the Boston Post said of him: "Mr. Griffin
graduated from Harvard in 1899, and has been with the
Boston News Bureau ever since. He wields one of the most
graceful pens in financial journalism — one that is equally
happy in verse, prose or statistics." Sec]

Continuing my decennial story, I have attempted to live
an even tenor of existence in Boston. By far the most no-
table event of my life took place on May 15, 1911, when
I married Mrs. Richard Lewis Howell of New York. Next
in importance was the birth of my daughter Alison Law-
rence on April 21, 1912. I have also two stepdaughters
aged 9 and 7. In 1910, I left the Old Colony Trust Com-
pany, where I was employed as assistant secretary to be-
come associated with the firm of Hamlin, Nickerson and
Company, stockbrokers. Since 1908, I have been coach of
the Harvard football teams. I have also been greatly in-
terested, during these years, in the promotion and continu-
ance of the Harvard Varsity Club. I have endeavored to
keep in close touch v.'ith various other sports, but have suc-
ceeded in only one instance in winning the "Blue Ribbon,"
namely the Double Racquet championship of United States
with H. D. Scott '98, in 1913. Hereafter my interests in
business and at home will preclude any further participa-
tions in athletic stunts, and moreover I am bald and nearing
forty. I have written sundry articles on sport for maga-
zines and newspapers. Member: Tennis and Racquet Club,.

After graduation from college, I went to work in New
York City as a clerk in the controller's office of the New
York Central Railroad, of which my father was then second
vice-president. In March, 1900, I took a similar position in
the treasurer's office of the Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago
and St. Louis Railway, also in New York City. In October,
1900, I went abroad with two friends, traveling through
France, Spain, Italy and Uermany, returning to this country
in April, 1901. Immediately after my return I went to
Framingham, Mass., where I entered the Dennison Manu-
facturing Company as a machine tender in the shipping tag
department. Here I received a liberal education in the
intricacies of carrying paper stock, cleaning machinery and
finally operating plain and printing tag machines until Au-
gust, 1902, when I was made head of this department. In
February, 1906, I was given charge of the printing depart-
ment and in March, 1908, the electrotype department. These

several departments constituted a division of the factory
and the position carried with it the title of division super-
intendent. In November, 1910, I was appointed assistant to
manager of w^orks, who was then Henry S. Dennison, also of
'99. In August, 1912, I succeeded Dennison as manager of
works, which is my present position. My chief interest out-
side of factory duties has been the housing problem and for
three years I have been working with a committee of the
Massachusetts Civic League in framing tenement house laws
for towns and cities of Massachusetts. The committee is
now engaged in framing a general housing law for the
state. In town affairs I have been on several different com-
mittees as well as on standing committees of our local Board
of Trade, but have never coveted or been invited to public
office. Member : Harvard Club of New York, Harvard Club

In the summer of 1911, I broke away from South Dakota,
determined to land a job in the East, or starve for it. For
two years I did odd jobs, acting as substitute teacher
here and there, tutoring some, translating various
articles from the Italian and German for the Harvard Theo-
logical Review, correcting modern language papers for var-
155

ious Harvard instructors, and serving as proctor at Harvard
examinations. Moreover, as always, I did a bit of indepen-
dent thinking on my own hook, trying to find myself, and —
well, maybe I came a trifle nearer succeeding than before.
In the summer of 1913, I was appointed Professor of French
and German at the Pennsylvania Military College, Chester,
Pa,, where I merely have to teach ten half -hour classes daily
five days in the week, besides serving as Officer of the Day
every fifth day, including Saturdays and Sundays, from 6.30
A. M. to 10 P. M. Lo! the lucky lobster! Meanwhile, the
"thinking" has kept on after a fashion. At Christmas time,
I conceived the idea. During the next six or seven weeks,
I gestated it. In the middle of February, I brought it forth
in perfected form. Its sub-title is, "A 10,000,000 Horse-
power Idea." I might just as well, perhaps, have made it
100,000,000, but I preferred to be modest about it. Doubt-
less it was modesty also that led me to adopt for pseudonym
the term Thinker. Now wasn't Thinker, a brilliant thought?
It makes so evident what you'd like to be considered, while
gracefully suggesting a good gibe to the envious and to cap-
tious critics. Besides, was not the author of the Pilgrim's
Progress a Tinker? Like honest John Bunyan, I don't give
a tinker's dam what they call me, provided I turn out some-
thing worth while. Therefore, to add to the hilarity of the
nations, let it be known that the "old fish," William S.
Hayes, henceforth also to be known as Thinker, is about to
rush into print. Like a mighty meteor he is to appear in the
heavens of thought, to the bewilderment, if not the bedevil-
ment, of the gaping groundlings. Whether he is to come
down with a thud like a spent rocket or vanish into inter-
stellar space, this deponent ventureth not to say. I have
translated for the Harvard Theological Review several arti-
cles from the Italian and German, but did not consider the
matter of any importance, so kept no detailed record of it.
Perhaps, the editor, Professor James H. Ropes, can supply
the details.

My activities since writing for our decennial report have
been along the same lines as described then. I am still with
the Boston Ice Company as vice-president and manager. I
have some personal interests in ice factories in Savannah,
Georgia, and New Orleans, Louisiana, which have given me
the opportunity of visiting those cities several times during
the last four years. I have for several years shipped a large
amount of fruit to South America, some of it packed in ice,
and a larger amount in refrigeration. This business has
developed rapidly since 1910. There is a great demand in
Bra2dl and the Argentine for high-grade fruit from this
country in the fall of the year. The lack of suitable trans-
portation facilities makes it extremely difficult to meet this
demand satisfactorily as there is only one line of steamers
operating between the United States and South America
whose boats are equipped for this business. There is how-
ever a rapidly increasing interest in the opportunities that
South American trade offers, which I hope will result in
other lines entering the field. Member : Harvard Club, New

On June 13, 1909 I was ordained into the first or minis-

the New Jerusalem, and for the subsequent three years
acted as instructor in the boys' high school at Bryn Athyn,
making also bi-weekly visits to a small congregation in
Baltimore. I taught French, German, Latin, Greek, Hebrew,
Algebra, Geometry, Church History, and Religion to a va-
172
Records of the Class
riety of grades. In May, 1912, I was ordained into the sec-
ond or pastoral degree of the priesthood, and assumed defi-
nite charge of the society in Baltimore. This society has
bought a plot of 13 acres of land at Arbutus in the suburbs
of Baltimore and built a small frame building which is used
as chapel on Sundays and as a school on week days. Al-
together eight families have settled in that neighborhood
and constitute a small New Church community. Thus a
distinctive religious and social life is provided for, among
those who acknowledge that Jesus Christ has made his sec-
ond coming in the Writings of Emanuel Swedenborg; and
the young are protected from the influence of a dead
Christianity and a life of mere pleasure. In January, 1913,
I was appointed to a professorship in the Theological School
at Bryn Athyn, with "The Rites, Ceremonials, and Spiritual
Signification of the Jewish Church" as my subject. In
October, 1913, I was appointed a member of the General
Council of the church. My work keeps me at Bryn Athyn
the entire year, with the exception of the bi-weekly visits to
Arbutus. I am secretary of the Bryn Athyn Academy
Alumni. I have written: "The Fifth Commandment," "The
Philosophy of Disease and Cure," "The Chaste Love of
Sex," "The Arcana of the Hebrew Language," in New
Church Life; "The Intellectual Difficulties of Homoepa-
thy, " in The New Church Quarterly. A transcription and
translation of Swedenborg 's Latin and German Notes in his
copy of Sebastion Schmidt's (Schmidius) Latin Bible (as yet
unpublished). Member: The Swedenborg Scientific Associa-

The balance of the year 1899, I devoted to travel, and also
the greater part of the year 1900. During the years 1901,
1902, and 1903, I assisted my uncle in his real estate and
other interests in Barre, Mass. In 1903, I entered the employ
of the First National Bank of Barre, remaining in the ser-
vice of the bank for nearly six years. Leaving Barre, in
1909, I was with private bankers in Boston, but devoted con-
siderable time to travel. More recently, I have become in-
terested in the efficiency systems of public service corpora-
tions, and am at present in the South, with the Southern Bell
Telephone and Telegraph Company at its home office in At-
lanta, Georgia. Only when living in Barre have I enjoyed
the time and opportunity for public and other activities.
While resident in that community, I was auditor of the
Town of Barre, treasurer of the First Parish in Barre (Uni-
tarian), president of the Barre Golf Club, and was an as-
sistant to the M. F. H. of the Brunswick Hunt.

My expectations of being married having been realized, the
next thing was to get busy, renovate this my ancestral home
and to see how much happiness, and incidentally shekels,
could be coaxed our way. Life at Livermore Falls is not the
same as State Street, Boston. The subway has not been ex-
tended so as to be of much personal benefit to us as yet;
at times it is not so much a question of rapid transit as any
transit. However, we are a long way in advance of State
Street in most things. We are free to think and do very much
as we please, the air is pure, you can run your auto as fast
as you want to, or rather dare to; we look out on most of
the surrounding landscape and gloat over its possession.
The world from this point looks pretty good.

Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research in New York
City. Since then the duties of this very interesting posi-

have taken about all of my time and energy. In 1911 I ar-
ranged and published a volume of my father's uncollected
essays under the title "Memories and Studies." I am at
present collecting material for a biographical selection from
his correspondence, and I shall be grateful to any former

The years have slipped away so fast, I scarcely know they 're
gone,
I've traveled in the West a bit and planted out some corn,
Away down in Vaginny, where the watermelons bloom,
And the dusky, Southern matrons are spinning on the loom.
I've steeped my mind in Injun lore, — in Trappers, Scouts,
and such.
Who've roamed upon the prairies and dodged the red man's
clutch.
I've lived with the frontiersman, the pirates, and the chap,
Who was a big adventurer and did not care a rap
For whizzing bullet, vaporing blade, and frightful blun-
derbus,
When carried by an enemy who was a fighting cuss.
In fact I've had a bully time, I never have been vexed
I trust that you have been quite well.
Now — ^how have you lived?

the Men and Religion Forward Movement at Springfield,
Mass., and the following year came to New York City to
take some courses in the School of Philanthropy, affiliated
with Columbia University. While continuing these studies,
I am in residence at Union Settlement on the upper East
Side, on the verge of "Little Italy." Here I am director
of men's and boys' club work. My especial purpose, both
in my connection with the Men and Religion Forward Move-
ment, and in my present position, is to study the approach
of the church to the social movements of our day, particu-
larly from the standpoint of the social worker. My convic-
tion is that, while there is a rising tide of social interest
in organized religion, there is great lack of knowledge on
the part of most ministers of the actual steps necessary to
adjust the work of the churches to the social needs of the
different communities. It is my hope ultimately to make
some contribution to this necessary adjustment.

Vermont. I travel from 15,000 to 18,000 miles every year,
and have learned much about New England's much-abused
railway systems from actual contact with the New England
Lines. I have also learned what hotels to avoid. My work
keeps me in touch with educational thought and progress,
with most of which I am in hearty sympathy, but I do wish
there were more Harvard men teaching in Massachusetts to
offset some of the mis-judged and ill-balanced vocationalism
which is seeking to run riot in educational circles. I am a
member of the Boston City Club, and to balance this urban
privilege I have become a director of the Hingham Agricul-
tural and Horticultural Society; also New England Bota-

After graduation my college training enabled me to de-
cide to take a vacation at once. I did research work on the
lakes and streams of Northern Vermont to find out if the
fishing had been injured while I had been away. On being
relieved on this point and the money having given out, I
was forced to go to work, which I did in October, 1899, in
the office of Professor H. Langford Warren, Boston, as ar-
chitectural draughtsman. Less than a year of this work in
the above city led me to believe that the only way to get a
raise or a good job at my trade was to wait for somebody to
die and as the architectural men in Boston seemed to be a
hardy type I began to look elsewhere. I heard of a job in
192
Records of the Class
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with Alden and Harlow, archi-
tects, which I secured at a munificent advance and emi-
grated to the city of smoke in July, 1900. Here I worked
on the drawings for the Carnegie Institute, a four million
dollar job, and some large office buildings and fine work
until October, 1901, when I made an incursion back to Cam-
bridge to try for the Austin Travelling Fellowship at Har-
vard. This being not sufficiently guarded I succeeded in
landing the prize, and after a short period in Pittsburgh to
recoup my shattered fortunes, I sailed with a beautiful letter
of credit for Italy in March, 1902. I traveled in Italy,
France, Spain and England till August, 1904. These were
the happy days. I was admitted to the Ecole Des Beaux
Arts, Paris, in 1902, and finished work of second class.
When the money gave out in July, 1904, I returned to
Pittsburgh, and I won the Allegheny County Prize, $1,000, in
the Carnegie Technical School competition in that year.
T formed a partnership to practise architecture entitled Bill-
(luist and Lee in 1905. This firm built a good volume of
work, the largest operations being the Presbyterian Hos-
pital, the Pennsylvania Reform School, and many fine resi-
dences, stores, apartment buildings, and hospitals. This
firm was dissolved in 1910. Since then I have i)ractised

The climate of Mexico City continues the same as at the

afraid the atmosphere is not quite so optimistic. For the
past three years or so, various Caballeros have taken upon
themselves the mantle of Don Porfirio with the result that
Mexico has been in a Dickens of a stew and is still stewing.
However, we are continuing the "watchful waiting" policy
and getting all the fun possible out of the situation. I am
happy to report that my riches have doubled since the De-
cennial, for then I had but one daughter and now I have
two. Member: University Club, Mexico City; Country Club,

The years of 1909 and 1910 were not noted for any great
change in either ray social or business relations; no great
successes or reverses until the last of 1910, when I had a
very severe illness, (gallstones), n-ecessitating a critical sur-
gical operation, from which I was a long time recover-
ing. I did practically no work in 1911, nor did 1912 show
much improvement over the previous year. In 1913, I was
quite busy the larger part of the year, and I am hoping the
present year will see normal conditions return again. Last
year I did two large buildings for Claflin University,
Orangeburg, S. C, in addition to the regular run of office
Avork. This year I am at work on a group of buildings for
Acadia University, Wolfville, N. S. It is my habit to spend
two or three months of summer each year at our summer
home in "Lakelands," N. S., which I find enjoyable and
very helpful in getting back my strength and vigor after
the long grind at office work. My son Donald is a student

My tale is soon told. "Here I am; here I remain." Evi-
dently my parish work, like the Philadelphia City Hall, isn't
finished yet, nor likely soon to be so. But as I am one of the
most fortunate of parsons, I am glad enough to continue as
the minister of All Souls' Church in Greenfield, Mass.
Though I haven't found a wife, I have found a farm, an es-
tate which for expense eclipses the estate of matrimony. To
spend my vacations on it, I have to spend them preaching to
a round of summer parishes, but sometimes between Sun-
days I can be found upon my own acres (financially spelled
"achers"), at Peterborough, N. H., where I shall be glad
to give food and drink to any wayfaring '99er, if any have
strong enough lunged machines to achieve the top of the
Hill Difficulty upon which my hospice is placed. Later he
writes ''After pleasant ministries in Walpole, N. H., and
Greenfield, Mass., I have been translated to the pulpit of
the Second Church in Boston. Being a parson has been so
congenial a labor, that, I have jog-trotted along without a
single climatic up or down, so that my only report must be
the dull, but comfortable one of progress." I have
written 400 sole-stirring sermons, and 100 scattered ad-
dresses. Member: Harvard Club of Boston, Peterborough

Records of the Class
In March, 1911, I gave up my position in the Merrill
Trust Company at Bangor — the confinement of that indoor
occupation having been rather irksome to me — and went to
Ellsworth, Maine, to try the outdoor life of farming. There
I resided until September, 1912, at which time, having de-
cided that I did not care to follow farming as a life pursuit,
T moved my family to Boston. That city is still my home.
There is little else of significance for me to report. In Au-
gust-October, 1913, in company with William C. Codman,
Jr., of Beaufort, S. C, I took a trip to Glacier National
Park, Montana, ''the coast," and into northern Alberta to a
point beyond the North Saskatchewan and Beaver Rivers
(between 54 degrees and 55 degrees north latitude). Duck-
shooting was the sport enjoyed in northern Canada. At the
present time, I am not engaged in any occupation. Member:

1911, and organized the International Civic Bureau, to act
as a medium of exchange for information between America
and foreign countries relating to the practical things which
show how other countries deal with their civic, social and
industrial problems. During 1912-1913, the activities of
the Bureau resulted in a series of investigations in Europe

by persons from various parts of the United States and
Canada. During the summer of 1913, a civic and social tour
was conducted in co-operation with New York University,
where the study programme of the tour was made a regular
part of the University curriculum. As a result of this 1913
trip, the work of the Bureau has been reorganized, and its
scope enlarged with special reference to a plan of co-opera-

forth the work will be carried on under the name of Insti-

Five years ago, my classmates, I left you at the "Vic" in
the good hands of "Jim" and "Joe" and "Billy." But in
the fall of 1910, I resigned from that delightful resort in
order to get married. And this has proven to be the best
thing that has befallen me since my choice of Harvard as
Alma Mater. (I recommend all you belated ones to go and
do likewise). We have one j'oungster, now almost a year
old, who, I am glad to say, bids fair to resemble her mother.
Since our marriage, we have lived not only in Boston, Brook-
line, and now in Waban, Mass., but also in that most delight-
ful of all places in California, the Montecito Valley, near San-
ta Barbara. Meanwhile I have maintained an office at 2A
Park St., Boston, in association -with Mr. Stephen Child (M.
I.T. '88), and enjoy a sloAvly increasing practice in land-
scape architecture. Among other societies of lesser import-
ance, I am a member of the Harvard Club of Boston, Fellow
of the American and Boston Societies of Landscape Archi-
tects, and the Waban Improvement Society., and have writ-
ten a few articles on landscape architecture for the garden-

Savage withdrew, and the business was taken over by Frank
H. Purington (also a '99 man), who had been managing it
for several years. The department in this office of which I
have had charge for some years, is that of management of real
estate, including collection of rents, repairs and general su-
pervision of property acting as agent for many different own-
ers of Boston real estate. Since our decennial year, I have
lived quietly, and have neither particularly disgraced myself
nor distinguished myself during that time, which answers
your inquiry in volume two, of '99 Returns which I have just
received.

Kecords of the Class
Our report on the occasion of " '99's" decennial found
me in Woonsocket, E. I., but my then bosses, Stone and
Webster, commuted my sentence for good behavior and sent
me in December, 1909 to Haverhill, Mass., as manager of
the Haverhill Gas Light Company, which they had just ac-
quired. There a broken down plant was brought up to date,
and an operating and business-getting organization built up.
While in Haverhill, I was a member of the usual clubs:
Pentucket, Wachusett, Merrimac Valley Country Club and
Fort Nightly Club. In May, 1910, I made a brief visit to
England, returning to my business in Haverhill. On Au-
gust 27, 1912, I was married at the Rectory of Our Lady
of the Mountains, North Conway, N. H. to Marie Phyllis
Phillips, daughter of Charles and Grace Sherwood Phillips
of New York. Our motor trip of two months took us
through the White Mountains, Vermont, Lake George, down
the Hudson to New York, through New Jersey and eastern
Pennsylvania. On January 1, 1913, I entered the employ of
the General Electric Company, spent a couple of months
at their factories at Schenectady, N. Y.^ and Pittsfield and
Lynn, Mass., and was then sent by them to the Pacific Coast.
I am now attached to their Seattle, Washington, office in
which city I make my home. All good '99ers will, of course,
come to San Francisco in 1915, and it is equally certain that
en route or returning they will find it impossible to resist
a visit to the metropolis of the Northwest, the Gate to the
New Alaska, a city doubling in size and wealth while your
back is turned, a city nestling on Lake Washington, encir-
cled by the snow-capped Cascades and Olympics, the Guar-
dian of Puget Sound, King of the Fisheries and rich forests
of the Northwest.

accidents. I was detailed to board the "Baltic" after the
sinking of the "Republic." The next was to board the
helpless "Florida" that had been in collision with the "Re-
public." About the most exciting, however, was the detail
to the "Carpathia" to give aid to the survivors of the "Ti-
tanic." Otherwise I continued on duty at Ellis Island ex-
amining candidates for admission to the United States. Dur-
ing the year 1911 wiis appointed assistant at the New York

During 1909, and a portion of 1910, I was employed by the

under the otHcial title of Special Statistician. I soon dis-
covered that I nuist either give up trying to pronounce ray
title or forego all social intercourse. Receiving a present of
a case of choice Scotch about this time, I gave up my title
and went to Indiana, where I endeavored to make a living as
a farmer. I continued my efforts until 1911, when the local
banks showed such a lack of enthusiasm about my abilities as
a farmer, that I returned to Boston, and joined what our
Friends fondly call the "Standard Tire and Rohher Com-
pany." At this saf^ distance, the comments of the aforesaid
bankers being somewhat tempered, by the United States Pos-
tal Regulations, I have continued my farming operations from
Boston. I am spending my declining years in the philanthro-
pic pursuits of compiling statistics on the mortality of auto-
mobile tires in Boston and raising cantaloupes in Indiana.
^The latter I sell under the name of and at no higher prices
than Rocky Fords). I was married in 1910, and the neigh-

Since the decennial report was issued, I have been con-
tinuously with The Sanitary District of Chicago, and am
now division engineer in charge of sewage disposal investi-
gations, sewer construction, and all sanitary matters. At
present I have under my direction contracts covering over
half a million dollars. A goodly portion of my time is spent
in expert work on lawsuits. In addition to my work with
the district, I have acted as consulting engineer to various
towns, including LaGrange, Wheaton, Riverside, Glen Ellyn
and Evanston, 111. ; Madison, Wis. ; Mason City, Iowa ; Ken-
more, Ohio ; and others ; and at present I am engineer joint-
ly with George W. Fuller for a twelve million gallon
rapid filter plant at Evanston, 111. Last spring I gave a
course of lectures on the purification of water and sewage at
the University of Chicago, and at the Medical School of the
University of Illinois. At other times, I have lectured on
sanitary topics to clubs or local organizations. I am now a
member of the American Society of Civil Engineers, the
Boston Society of Civil Engineers, the Western Society of
Civil Engineers, the New England, the Illinois and the
American Water Works Associations, the American Public
Health Association, American Chemical Society, and other
organizations of like character. I am a member of the Council
of the Association of Harvard Engineers, and a member of
committees in various engineering societies. On the social
side I belong to the University Club of Chicago, the Harvard
Club of New York City, and the City Club of Chicago, and
two alumni associations. I have written various published
articles and reports, of which the following are the more
important : The Sewage Testing Station of the Sanitary-
District, Engineering News, March 31, 1910; Relation of

want to say that I was indeed surprised to find I had the
longest history in the decennial report. Evidently '99 is
given to doing rather than writing, a wholesome sign, or was
it the editor! Where were the literary men? I trust this
time I am not the offender.

Class of 1899 — Fourth Eeport
Since 1909 I have lived mostly at Wenliam, spending both
summers and winters there. The time has been broken by
various short trips, the longest to the Sudan in the winter
of 1912-13. Zoological material obtained on these trips has
been turned in to the Harvard Museum. Other trips of like
nature are being planned but not often carried out. Hob-
bies and work (mostly hobbies) have gone hand in hand and
a good deal of time has been spent in the experimental study
of heredity, working with birds here and mammals at the
Bussey Institution, also in "messing" over collections of
birds in Cambridge and with aviculture on the farm at Wen-
ham. A few papers have been written from time to time,
mostly scientific abortions, or at any rate nothing of general
interest. The authorities have seen fit to give me a key to
the Zoological Museum at Cambridge, and to put my name
on an obscure door. I have forgotten all about medicine and
have to send for a doctor every time I sneeze. We have a
pair of offspring, male and female, and this brings me to
another topic. By way of being cheerful, it is my belief
that unless some of the influential members of the class of
'99 get busy and help to restrict the immigration of
undesirable aliens into this country, the class babies,
now developing, will find "this here corner" a mighty poor
place to live in. I have written miscellaneous papers and
notes in Journal Ex. Zoology, American Naturalist, the Auk,

Class of 1899 — Fourth Report
With the aim of making myself a music critic, and with
the hope of having my criticisms of weight in the most mu-
sical city in the world, I began a practical course in printing
and bookmaking with the Norwood Press, where I shook
from myself the dust of pedagogics (I had been a teacher),
and got some printers' ink on mj^ hands. For actual expe-
rience in literary fields, I assisted in the preparation of the
manuscripts of Ralph Waldo Emerson for additional vol-
umes recently printed by the Houghton Mifflin Company.
Thence I entered the Oliver Ditson Company, music publish-
ers of Boston, as an assistant to the editor of "The Musi-
cian." From there I was called to New York to assume the
responsibility for the publications of the music-publishing
house of G. Schirmer — the "Bulletin of New Music" and
"G. Schirmer 's Musical Digest." For the "Bulletin" I
write the critical analysis of all G. Schirmer publications
and I review current musical events, including operas, con-
certs, and whatever else of musical interest takes place
during the short but very busy New York season. The
"Digest" covers the field of musical pedagogics, dealing
with problems of interest to the teacher and student of
music, and containing articles specially written by recog-
nized authorities. The preparation of these two periodicals
proves very interesting to me and is quite in accord with
my tastes and training. Coming as a stranger to this
great city, I naturally sought the Harvard Club of New
York City, of which I became a member. But
after attending the various functions of the club
for a year, I found them rather too formal and stiff
for my temperament; and so I resigned in favor of a club
(German), where I soon came to know men congenial to
my tastes. On the whole, my life has been a serene and
happy one during the years I have been here. Recently,
however, I have been the victim of some of the New York
robbers, whose name is legion; and they succeeded in break-
ing up my home, taking with them almost everything of
value. I am now to be counted among those who are in-
terested in the investigation of local police conditions,
RECORDS OF THE ClASS
and in the reorganization of the department of police.
Soon after coming to New York, I met my fate (matrimo-
nially speaking). In other words, I married on February
21, 1912. in St. Paul's Chapel, Columbia University, Alice
Madeleine Smart, a New York girl who fully measures
up to Harvard standards, though herself a graduate of
Columbia. Member: New York Booksellers' League, New

After leaving Harvard in 1896, I attended the New York
Law School during the following year. By a queer twist of
fate, however, instead of following up the law, my then
chosen profession, I found myself in the army. During the
Spanish-American war I was on submarine mining duty in
New York Harbor. I saw much active service during the
Philippine insurrection from 1899 to 1902. After a tour of
home service at eastern stations, I again, in 1904, left with
my regiment the narrow confines of the United States, and
spent two pleasant years on the Yukon in latitude sixty-five,
cutting new trails, constructing telegraph lines, and doing
our little mite toward the opening up of our great north-
western territory. The year 1909 found me again in the
Philippines, this time in Moroland on the little island of Jolo.
The Moros, a hard fighting lot, had been at peace for several
years, but a disarmament order caused them to break out
afresh, and in 1911-12 we had much weary marching and
many brisk skirmishes before they were once more subdued ;
indeed, when in 1912, I was ordered home, the end was not
yet. Army life, as you see, is one of violent changes, but
very attractive withal. We never finish school in the army;
I am even now a college student. Last year I graduated
from the Army School of the Line, and I am now in the
Staff College here at Leavenworth. By the way, the most
interesting course we have this year is one in Historical
Research, conducted by Captain Arthur L. Conger, Harvard
'95. It is a course which T think would please even Profes-
sor Channing. Member: United States Infantry Association.

After my return from Paris in 1907, I worked at Johns
Hopkins University in medicine for six months. After
which, I gave up medicine for literary work, which I followed
for three years. I wrote numerous newspaper articles, criti-
cisms, etc., and in 1911, I wrote and staged two plays. The
same year, I became interested in some marine engineering
work, where I came across some new uses for natural gas, and
also helped devise some methods for its purification. I formed
a small company which is now operating in the gas fields of
the Pittsburgh district.

take, I quit the practice of the law, and went into cotton
manufacturing with the Farwell Bleachery and Farwell
Mill, with my brother-in-law, N. F. Ayer, 1900. My prin-

When the Madero revolution became serious in the winter
of 1911, I was sent as a correspondent for Collier's to the
border, and later to Mexico. The sudden mobilization of our
troops brought me back from Mexico City to San Antonio,
where I spent a very interesting and instructive week or
two, in and about the American camp. In the autumn of the
same year, I again went to Mexico, landing at Vera Cruz and
traveling for several days with the Madero party, while
Mr. ^Madero Avas finishing the campaign which preceded his
election. After the election, I went down into southwest
Mexico and climbed the volcano of Colima, unsuccessfully
attempted on my previous visit. In the spring of 1912 I
made the long journey to Bogota, the capital of Columbia,
and in the summer of 1913 traveled through the Central

Class of 1899 — Fourth Report
Since the last report I have continued in the employ of
the city of New York as a civil engineer, on the develop-
ment of the new water supply from the Catskill Mountains
My work has been in connection with the building of the
great aqueduct which will carry water one hundred miles
to the city, in quantity sufficient for the supply of five mil-
lion people. I have been on this job for eight years, and
started on some of the first surveying work to determine
the route through the country. The experience in the de-
velopment of this project has been interesting and varied,
as the problems met are unusual. My work has consisted
of geological survej^s, interpretation of underground inves-
tigations by borings for determining the character of the
rock, location of tunnels, and active participation in the
construction of aqueduct built in cut-and-cover, grade tun-
nels, steel pipe lines, and deep pressure tunnels blasted
through rock, which cross below the floors of valleys, under
rivers and streams. A large engineering organization had
to be built up especially for this project. A number of
Harvard men have been prominent in the organization
and have done fine work for the city of New York. The
first few years were mainly devoted to investigations for
determining the location and amount of available supplies
of water, surveys for deciding on the best location of the
works, and when the location was determined, studies and
designs for the structures, followed by actual location on
the ground. Contracts for the construction were next let,
and the engineer corps was largeh^ increased, to handle the
supervision and inspection of the contractors' work. Large
camps to house the workmen had to be built, often at some
distance from the railroads, and sanitary oversight of these
camps was maintained by the city's engineers. The work
has brought me in personal touch with a great many men,
foreign and colored laborers, miners and mechanics, as well
as the American workmen, superintendents and contractors
who wander around the country following construction
jobs. Since 1905 I have been living "up the state," sta-
tioned at a number of places where the work was in prog-
070
Records of the Class
ress, along some 65 miles of the aqueduct line. This work
is now practically completed, and the men employed on the
work have nearly all left the country for other jobs. At
present I am living in New York City, vv^here I am in charge,
as division engineer, of about nine miles of the deep tunnel
from the Yonkers city line to Central Park. It is expected
that this work will be completed in about one year more,
when the Catskill water will become available for use in
New York and Brooklyn. Member: The American Institute

Company.
Address (home) Awbury. Germantown, Philadelphia. Pa.
(business) ^09 Chestnut St., Philadelphia, Pa.
In 1910 I was transferred from the treasurer's office of
the Provident Life and Trust Company to organize the pur-
chasing department of the company, in charge of all pur-
chases (excepting investments), including repairs and altera-
tions to real estate. I am still purchasing agent, a position en-
cumbered with much detail, largely petty. My interests outside
of business have increased and become more arduous. I have
273

become a member of the committee in charge of Westtown
School, a boarding school near Philadelphia, managed by
and for members of the Society of Friends, a member of the
Philadelphia Friends' Educational Committee, and treasurer
of the Friends' Asylum for the Insane. Whatever time I
have left at home after reading "The Harvard Bulletin," I
endeavor to devote to the proper training of my five chil-
dren, which, needless to say, gives me more pleasure than
anything else I do. I am still fond of cricket, but ''soccer"
football proves a little too strenuous when played only once
a week, without anj- practice or training. I do a bit of
canoeing and a year ago had a splendid three days' trip
through the rapids of the upper Delaware, from Hancock
to Port Jervis, said to be the finest swift water canoeing in
the East, barring the Susquehanna. In 1909 I bought two
acres on the outskirts of Germantown in the midst of a beau-
tiful wooded old family estate and built a house, where I
expect to spend the rest of my life.

effete East, about twice a year. My only bid for fame,

and became resident engineer on the construction of the
new $1,000,000 bridge shop of the St. Lawrence Bridge
Company, Limited, an entirely new plant for the construc-

the completion of this plant in December, 1912, I spent the
year 1913, with C. E. Deakin, contractor and builder, and
with the building department of the Canadian Pacific Rail-
way, in general estimating and a variety of building work.
Since October, 1913, I have been resident engineer on the
construction of the new $3,000,000 gas plant at Ville La
Salle, Lachine, P. Q., Canada, for the Montreal Light, Heat
and Power Company. While I much prefer my native
country, I have enjoyed the lure of outside construction
work, and my living in pioneer Canada to such an extent
that I have now a home here. I miss the benefits of close
proximity to my alma mater which I enjoyed in former
285

years, after graduation. Close application to professional
work and attention to a young family, have precluded all
desires which I have had for membership in clubs or extend-
ed travel. As for sports and leisure, Canadian winter sports
are a great attraction here. In summer lawn tennis, garden,
flowers and a small variety of building operations about my
own place add much interest to my little leisure time.

Since 1909, my work has been very much the same as des-
cribed in the earlier part of the class history, I have special-
ized in the study of the operation and traffic of American
railroads, and for two years published a monthly magazine
called ''Railroad Studies." This dealt with about fifty
different railway systems in this country and was the result
of personal investigation of many of them out on the line.
I think, perhaps, I may claim title to the class record for
travel for, in the fifteen years since leaving college, I have
covered approximately 350,000 miles. I expect soon to go
abroad, and while tliere, I shall make a study of the govern-
ment-owTied railroads. I am a member of the Middlebrook
Country Club, and my chiefest pleasure in life is placing
golf.

During the five years since the last report I have con-
tinned as pastor of the Middle Street Baptist Church,
Portsmouth, N. H. The work has kept me reasonably
busy, and afforded much of pleasure and profit. The old
town by the sea with its traditions from the past, and its
present enlivened by frequent visits from ships of the navy,
and a stream of summer residents and tourists in the sum-
mer, has many attractions. I have no doubt that many
classmates have whizzed by my front door on their way
to The Rockingham or The Wentworth. I can think of
nothing to place alongside the great accomplishments of
my classmates which will be recorded in the forthcoming
report. The things that amount to the most we none of
us naturally make record of there. It occurs to me that
possibly I may have had the good fortune to marry as
many couples as any member of the class, having to date
joined 133 couples in marriage, most distinguished among
them our classmate E. B. Wilson and wife. Other class-
mates will be welcome. When your auto glides through
the old streets of the town and stops before The Rocking-
ham, remember that a classmate lives just around the

happily married already. But if you think to atone for
failure of the first marriage by attempting a second don't
come to him. Vacations I have spent on Georgian Bay,
Ontario, or at New Castle, N. H. I have written no books,
joined no clubs of consequence, held no important offices,
nevertheless have been happy.

When I wrote my last account, I was employed in the
law department of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Com-
pany, in the trial of jury cases in Supreme Court and in
the arguing of appeals in the Appellate Division. 1 also
supervised the Municipal Court and Criminal Court de-
partments of the company. In December, 1909, I resigned
to become connected with the firm of Greene, Hurd and
Stowell at 43 Exchange Place, New York City, where I
have since been engaged in the general practice of the law. I
have been very active in politics. Each fall since 1907, I
have been elected at the Republican primaries to the New
York Republican County Committee, and have also been a
member of the Republican City Committee. In 1909, I
succeeded the Honorable William H. Wadhams, Judge of
General Sessions, as president of the Madison Square Re-
publican Club, the regular organization club of the 25th
Assembly District, and I was re-elected to this position in
300
Records op the Class
1910, 1911 and 1913. In 1914, I was succeeded by Robert
McC. Marsh, '99. During part of 1910, I served as a spec-
ial Deputy Attorney General of the state. In the fall of
1911, I was elected by nearly 2,000 majority to represent
the 25th Assembly District of New York County in the
State Assembly at Albany and I served during the session
of 1912. In the fall of 1912, I v\^as renominated but, be-
cause of the split in the Republican party, every New York
City candidate for either house of the State Legislature
was defeated at the election. My vote was proportionately
the largest cast for any Republican candidate for the As-
sembly in New York County. In the fall of 1913, I was
renominated by the Republican party, and Tammany, Na-
tional Progressive, and other candidates against me, I re-
ceived several hundred more votes than all my opponents
combined. I am at present representing my district at
Albany. According to the last census, the district has a
population of about 60,000. After resigning as captain
from the 14th Regiment, N. G.. N. Y., in 1906, I did not
serve in the active militia until the fall of 1912, when I
enrolled in the Veteran Corps of Artillery, a light battery
and the oldest military organization in the state. Some
years ago, I served as senior vice-commander of A. L.
Kline Camp, United Spanish War Veterans, and in 1912,
I was appointed legislative aide to the Commander-in-
Chief. I have written: "The Stoddard Family", a genea-

Maine, to Athens, Georgia. Having visited a large number
of colleges in the territory covered, I will not give my im-
pression of which are the saddest appearing, as compari-
sons are odious, but will say that I was particularly im-
pressed with the distinctive attractiveness of the layout and
buildings of the University of Virginia at Charlottesville.
As a result of my business trips, I am also impressed with
the prolificness of Mr. Carnegie 's Library Fund. Leaving the
Boston Book Company last spring, I was with the Taylor

Since 1909 I have continued the practice of law at 340
Tremont Building, Boston, sharing a suite of offices at first
with James W. Spring '98, Clifton L. Bremer '96, James
M. Hunnewell '01, and Delano Wight '02, and, for the last
two years, with Spring, Hunnewell and Edwin H. Abbot,
Jr. '03. My practice has been a general one without spec-
ialty, although I have had more office than court work; I
have also had the care of several estates. I am still a trustee
of the Hospital Cottages for Children at Baldwinville. 1 am
also a trustee of Derby Academy in Hingham, treasurer of
Arlington Street Church (Unitarian) in Boston, and a mem-
ber of the parish committee of the Third Congregational
Society in Hingham. For six years I have acted as an in-
spector of polls at the city and state elections in Boston.
I continue to reside with my parents in Boston, spending
five months of the year in Hingham. I have found time to
keep up my interest in music and to participate therein. 1
am a member of the Harvard Alumni Chorus of Boston, and

conference of Unitarian Churches. In 1912, I was fortunate
enough to attend the meeting of the Associated Harvard

last year at St. Louis, but, at the last minute, was unable
to do so. I have also made numerous other trips. Member :

Business Librarian.
Address Chelsea Square, New York, N. Y.
I summed up my decade after June, 1909, for the de-
cennial report in three and one-half lines. Only five years
have since passed, but I find myself threatened with some-
thing that approaches the garrulity of old age! The rea-
son, however, is not graying hairs nor great accomplish-
ments, but rather the result of the pleasure and interest
I found in reading other fellows' experiences in that
same decennial report, whether I knew the men or not. I
have said to myself, why not shed a little more light on my
own existence, iiumdrum as it may seem? Since leaving
my position in the Harvard College library, I have spent
the past ten years in, but hardly of. New York City, as
librarian of an Episcopal Theological Seminary. I have
lived and worked in a little corner of the city which is
321

hidden away from its bustle, made beautiful with green
grass and trees and surrounded by an Oxford-like quad-
rangle of buildings. In shorty I work at one end of a long
city block, and live near the other end in what is really
very much of a college dormitory. By my door at night
there often pass footsteps of late home-comers, but they
never lag with the tell-tale hesitancy I have knovm in
years gone by! My dog, which is my whole family, and a
satisfying family at that, does not even growl. Beneath
my windows are two splendid tennis courts which help
the summers pass. Despite the specialty of this library
in theology, it is, to my joy, fairly rich in the sort of books
which I most care for, early printed volumes, old bindings,
books with early wood-cuts, early manuscripts, etc. More-
over we purchase fairly largely in general history, socio-
logy, and biography. Contrasted with some occupations,
mine may seem uninteresting and cloistered, but it has its
compensations, and after all Times Square is only fifteen
minutes away. On the faculty and among the students,
are always a number of Harvard men; this coupled with
membership in the Harvard Club, keeps me well in touch
with Harvard interests, tho' I see very few '99 men, ex-
cept Harry Thompson, Adelbert Smith and George Vedder.
At various times I have been president and treasurer of
the New York Library Club, and my membership in the
Grolier Club of this city adds much to the pleasures of
my chief interests and work. I have edited, with biograph-
ical sketch, "The Intellectual Torch," by Jesse Torrey; an
early American plea for free public libraries, published
in 1912. Member: Harvard Club and Grolier Club of New
York City; New York Library Club, American Library

During the 1908 session the Agnew bills to abolish l3et-
ting at the race-tracks came before the New York legisla-
ture, and were finally passed at an extra session which
lasted well into the summer. In the fall of 1908, as a dele-
gate from my district, I attended the Republican conven-
tion at Saratoga, where I voted for the renomination of
Governor Hughes. Towards the end of the 1909 session, 1
introduced the New York County Republican election bills
to prevent fraudulent voting. They included the much
talked of signature law which provided for the compari-
son of the voters' signatures on election day, with their
324
Records of the Class
signatures on registration day or, in the case of illiterates,
the comparison of their answers to questions, as a means
of identification. I was defeated in trying to pass these
measures after strenuous fights both in the senate and as-
sembly. From these fights I got a great deal of publicity;
notices appearing in papers as far away as the Pacific
coast. For the 1909 session. Speaker Wadsworth appointed
me a member of the following assembly committees: Judi-
ciary, Public Health, Revision. At the close of the session,
1 was appointed a member of the joint committee of senate
and assembly to investigate, and determine whether the
telegraph and telephone companies in the State of New
York should come under the supervision of the Public
Service Commission, and I traveled all over the state lis-
tering to public hearings. In the fall of 1909, I was unan-
imously renominated by the Republican convention of my
district, and was again elected, having run on a fusion
ticket and having received 5,536 votes against 3,260 votes
cast for Chas. L. Kohler, the Democratic candidate. At
the beginning of the session. Speaker Wadsworth appointed
me a member of the following committees : Judiciary, Rail-
roads, Revision. During the session of 1910, I re-intro-
duced the election bills which were supported by Herbert
Parsons and the Republicans of New York County. After
strenuous fighting, these bills finally passed both houses
of the legislature at an extra session, at which they were
included in the governor's message convening the legisla-
ture. In the spring of this year I became a member of
the law firm of Everett, Clarke, Benedict and Ward, 79
Wall St., New York City. During the three years I was
on the Judiciary Committee, I had consistently voted
against the different v/oman's suffrage resolutions before
the committee. For that reason the Woman's Suffrage
Party of New York City, decided to make an example of
me at the election in the fall of 1910. In this campaign
the}^ invaded my district, held mass meetings in Union
Square, where they denounced me, and made a house to
house canvass of the voters of my district. TTnanimously
325
Class op 1899 — Fourth Report
renominated in the fall of 1910, I ran on the Republican
ticket only, and in spite of the avalanche of a Democratic
presidential election, and the opposition of my suffrage
friends, I received 3,942 votes against 3,627 votes cast for
David H. Knott, the Democratic nominee and was the only
Republican elected in what was a strong Republican con-
gressional and senatorial district. Speaker Frisbie for the
session of 1911, appointed me a member of the following
committees: Affairs of Cities, Revision. As senior member
of the Republicans from New York County, I was the
leader of those representatives in the assembly and had
much fighting to do in opposition to the Democratic major-
ity. During this session the protracted United States
senatorship fight took place and James 0 'Gorman was
elected after a deadlock lasting all summer. In the spring
of 1911, I resigned from the firm of Everett, Clarke, Bene-
dict and Ward, and later declined a renomination by the
Republicans of my district. I then prepared to go to Cali-
fornia on business, where I lived until the fall of 1912.
While in San Francisco, I was active in the formation and
incorporation of the Atlas Paving Brick Company, and
was made its first secretary. In October of that year, I
was called to Detroit, Mich., and resigning- as secretary
of the brick company, I became vice-president of the King
Motor Car Company, and am noAv busily engaged in the
manufacture of motor cars. Member: Sphinx Graduate

There is little to add to my statement in the decennial re-
port. The past five years have added a few more gray hairs
and have taken away some of my youthful spirits. Now be-
hold me a staid practitioner, plying daily between home and
office with the regularity, but not, thank goodness, with the
load of a Fall River boat. My business has spread out a
little so that I have interesting visits to other cities, par-
ticularly to Augusta, Georgia, which, as a great winter re-
sort, offers many opportunities both for business and for
pleasure. It is there that I learn most about golf, and after
another ten winters or so I hope to be able to formally chal-
lenge the then surviving members of the class who are in the
thrall of that alluring but tantalizing game. The only po-
sition of honor I hold is that of husband of the chairman of
the Brookline Branch of the Massachusetts Association Op-
posed to the Further Extension of Suffrage for Women, a
lady whom I daily more admire, a leader whom I shall ever
enthusiastically follow.

Class of 1899 — Fourth Report
The summer of my decennial I spent at Seabright, N. J.,
passing the fall in Briarcliff, N. Y. In December, I was
blessed with a son Malcolm, Jr., but suffered the greatest
of sorrows in the loss of my wife, Janet McCook Whitman,
In order to recuperate, I went to Southern California, where
I lived with my sister in the sunshine and out of doors for
several months. I took several trips, one to Coronado, and
one to Catalina Island, where I enjoyed myself fishing for
monsters of the deep. I also visited the Grand Canyon, and
other places of interest on my way across the country. On
my return to New York, in the late summer of 1911, I toiled
steadily in my business, passing my next winter in 115 East
60th St., with my two children. In the spring of 1912, I be-
came engaged to Jennie Adeline Crocker, and the folloMdng
summer, under the sunny skies of California we were married
on July 16, 1912. We took a fishing and hunting trip shortly
thereafter, going first to the McCloud River, near Mountain
Shasta. Here we rode and hunted, and caught rainbow trout
in that wonderful stream. We then took a trip to Catalina
Island, where we spent our time fishing along the picturesque
shore. Our next and great trip was to Klamath Lake in
Oregon, where we fished for mighty rainbows, climbed moun-
tains, and visited the miraculous Crater Lake region. We
shot and camped and rejoiced. In the fall of 1912, we re-
turned to Burlingame, our home in California, and then
came East, where we have dwelt in happiness ever since, re-
turning each year to California for a while. On September
21, 1913, we were blessed with a boy, Frederick Crocker
Whitman. This summer we return to California for a spell,
under sunny skies again, and so on. Member: Association of

Business Librarian.
Address (home) 167 Newbury St., Brockton, Mass.
(business) Public Library, Brockton, Mass.
Since the decennial, I have continued as librarian at the
public library in Brockton. Life in a busy enterprising city
has added zest to a work that in itself is always full of in-
terest. The impetus now quite generally given to the var-
ious lines of municipal vrork has extended to libraries. This
development has immensely enriched the public library
field and makes it possible to help carry out some of the
problems of the work in the terms of modern needs. All
this simply to make it clear that the average conception of a
librarian as a bookworm must be modified to the extent of
dismissing the idea that his chief occupation is in browsing
among books. Aside from my regular work, I suppose I
have the usual number of connections with outside organi-
zations and clubs. I have found special interest in a local
economic club on the executive committee of which I have
had the honor to serve. We have had many excellent dis-
cussions, and we have had the pleasure of welcoming many
Harvard men as speakers. In the last two years, I have
been associated, as president, with a library club which is
pretty closely limited in its membership to Plymouth Coun-
ty, but which it is hoped is doing something to advance
library interests hereabout. "We have, in the city, a thriving
university club, of recent creation, with a good representa-
tion of Harvard men in attendance at the meetings. We are
just now giving a course of six free public lectures at the
library and four Harvard men are among the speakers. At-
tendance at library conferences in various parts of the
country and in Canada has given me some opportunity to-
335

travel, and so to satisfy in part, a wanderlust that most of
us at times experience, and which the many admirable
books of travel now available will only partially allay.
In the summer of 1909, I had a brief but wholly delightful
trip to Europe, most of this time being spent in Holland
with a chance to explore by canal and wheel some quaint
sections of a picturesque country. During 1911, I had a
short cruise through the West Indies, with time enough to
see something of the canal region, and a part of the coast
of Columbia. A propos of travel I should not omit to men-
tion a journey to the region of Soldiers' Field in the fall of
1913. This, of course, needs no elaboration. Member:

After the decennial I went to Europe where I spent most
of my time in Vienna and Gratz. A side trip to Buda-Pesth
was interesting but unpleasant because the Hungarians won't
talk German and I can't talk Hungarian. During the second
half-year (spring of 1911), I lectured at Harvard on Sta-
tistical Mechanics, a subject intelligible even less to my stu-
dents than to myself. During this period the Institute of
Technology saw fit to advance me to a full professorship of
mathematics. July 5, 1911, saw me married by our class-
mate. Rev. Stanley, whom I can and hereby do recommend to
my classmates, so many of whom are still in need of such
services (Editor Adams may not let this by). Early in 1912"
my Advanced Calculus, on which I had been working for
five years, was published. It was a tough proposition to
write, and I am told that it remains a tough ])roposition to
study. Mrs. Wilson and I found a small abandoned farm on
the side of Green Mountain, Effingham Falls, N. H., which we
bought and where we may be found during the summers.
An article on the Space-Time Manifold of Relativity, written:
in collaboration with my colleague, G. N. Lewis, appeared in.
the fall of 1912 and constituted my most important scientific
contribution to date. Lucubrations of this sort may be ex-
pected from time to time, but they will not be inflicted on
any class reunion. I have been elected to fellowship in the

Class op 1899 — Fourth Report
Louis Albert Best, was born in Valley Falls, Kan., De-
cember 26, 1876. Here his childhood days were passed until
his father John Reuben Best, became manager of the Big
Four Lumber Company, when he moved with his family to
St. Louis, where he attended Smith Academy, until he en-
tered Harvard University — taking the classical course, and
graduating with the class of '99. After leaving college, he
traveled extensively in order to acquire fluency in the lan-
guages. In 1904, he located in Kansas City, Mo., where in
connection with his lumber interests, he took up
architecture and building — and did some excellent
work. After completing the apartment house at
Armour and Broadway, his usual fine health gave
way, and he suffered a nervous-breakdown. Everything was
done to prolong a life of unusual promise. After a winter
in the West Indies, his health had so far recovered, that his
physician said he would be able to resume his business in
the autumn. But on the 30th day of June, 1912, he was ac-
cidentally drowned while crossing one of the seven great lakes
of Maine, in which he encountered a wind storm. His body
was recovered, and buried at the old home in Kansas, where
many friends came to do him honor. He was a man of un-
usual attainments, and high ideals — but humble and modest
to a marked degree. He commanded the admiration, and
love of all who came under the range of his influence. In
his case it may be truthfully said "Death loves a shining
mark," and "the world is better for his having lived in
it."

He was a graduate of the Roxbury Latin School, and spent
355
Class of 1899 — Fourth Report
two years after graduation at Harvard College, in the spec-
ial study of political economy, intending to become a teacher
of that subject. The greater part of these two years was
passed in Harvard, with the exception of a few months at
Oxford University. In the autumn of 1901, an excellent
business opportunity was presented to him in the Pressed
Steel Car Company of Pittsburg, which he accepted, and
there rose rapidly to the position of superintendent. After a
few years of remarkable success his advancement was inter-
rupted by a serious illness and later by general business de-
pression. He had, however, achieved so high a reputation in
steel-car manufacture that at the time of his death he was
general manager of the Standard Steel Car Company of
Baltimore. Mr. Bowker was fortunate in winning the re-
gard of thousands of workmen who came under his direc-
tion. He had many business associates and intimates in Bal-
timore and Pittsburg who valued him both as a rarely ca-
pable man of business and as comrade and friend. For,
besides his strong, clear, and well-trained mind, he had a
geniality and gift for friendship which made him welcome
in every social group. His character was rich in honorable
principles and loyal to Christian ideals. He has left behind
him a notable record of useful and important service and a
good name that will long endure in the hearts of his
friends.

Robert Emmett, Burke, died in Boston on June 27, 1910.
He was injured in an automobile accident in Dorchester on
the night of June 19. He was taken to the Boston City Hos-
pital and rallied after the accident, but later he suffered a
relapse and did not recover. He was born in Boston 36 years
ago. In his early days his parents moved to South Boston,
and for many years he lived at 156 M St. He attended the
Eliot School, and later the English High School. He studied
law in a lawyer's office for a year and then attended Bridge-
water Normal School, from which he was graduated in 1896.
He entered the Lawrence Scientific School as a sophomore
and was graduated in 1899. He served as laboratory assist-
ant in the school in 1898 and in 1900, was field instructor of
the Cuban Summer School. From 1896-99, he was 1st assist-
ant at the Bigelow evening school in South Boston, and was
principal of the Lincoln evening school in 1899. From Oct-
ober, 1899 to February, 1904, he was junior master in Mech-
358
Addenda
anie Arts High School, and was later master in Boston Nor-
mal School until January, 1907, when he was made assistant
superintendent of schools, to complete a term which expired
August 31, 1907. He was reappointed for the term of six
years from September 1, 1907. He was a member of nu-
merous societies.
Starting with no advantages except his native gifts, Rob-
ert E. Burke at the early age of thirty-six had achieved a
position among the foremost educators of the city. It was
characteristic of him that he interpreted education not me-
rely as a training of the mental faculties, but in a larger and
more human way, as an influence molding the pupil's whole
nature, such as could only be exercised by one who was
himself a whole man. To make himself such a man, rather
than a specialist in one or two fields, was the object of his
broad ambition, and few men in Boston have attained a more
rounded development of mind and heart, of body and of
will. A trained scientist and accomplished out-of-doors man,
he was quite at home in the world of books. An adept at
many games, he still took life as a task and a fundamentally
serious one. The most joyous and humorous of companions,
he strewed his path from early manhood with deeds of mercy,
never heralded or blazoned from his lips. To a singular
degree he avoided excess, and contradicted the familiar mot-
to by failing to display the defects of his qualities. Thus he
was original, but not eccentric ; courageous, yet never comba-
tive; virtuous, with no air of professional virtue; a scholar
free from pedantry, a gentleman without affectation or
pride. No one who came in contact with him even casually
failed to note his personal charm, his rare patience, his ca-
pacity for loyal friendship, and, above all, his genuine char-
ity of head and heart and tongue. The lowly revered him,
the young held him as their idol, while he walked as an
equal among those in high station. Young in years, he was
still younger in the unexhausted potentialities of his rich
nature. All his intimates recognized a great reserve of
strength in Robert Burke, an element profound and even
mysterious in the character which seemed, and in fact was,
359
Class of 1899 — Fourth Report
outwardly so candid and transparent. The best of life, a
wider sphere of usefulness — and usefulness was his single
measure of success — seemed awaiting this brilliant and pure-
minded man, whose memory remains as an inspiration to
thousands of friends. May he find many disciples among
them. Such characters are needed to maintain the difficult
standards of Christian manhood.

Professor Sherman Campbell died at Hanover, Ind., March
3, 1910. His father had been major and most of the time
acting-colonel in the 33d Missouri Volunteers and showed his
loyalty to the Northern cause and admiration for two of the
northern officers by naming his twin sons "Sherman" and
"Sheridan." When they were two years old they were taken
to Forestville, N. Y., to live, and later to Pennsylvania and
Canada, the family finally moving to Cambridge. Sherman
Campbell attended the Cambridge Latin School, and was
360
Addenda
graduated in 1893. For two years lie was in business before
entering Harvard, and in the summer vacations was occupied
as a bookkeeper in banks. He took no prominent part in the
college life but pursued his plan to teach Classics. At grad-
uation he wrote the Baccalaureate Hymn. After that, he
taught Latin and Greek in the Hudson River Institute, Hud-
son, N. Y., and Norfolk University School. He returned to
Harvard for part of the year 1902-03, and received an A.M.
(as of 1903). Subsequently he was professor of Greek and
Latin at the S. W. Kansas College at Winfield, and in 1905-
06 at Bradley Polytechnic Institute, Peoria, 111. In the au-
tumn of 1906, he went to Hanover College, Hanover, Ind., as
professor of Greek, succeeding Professor J. B. Garrit. He
remained there until his death. In the spring of 1909. he had
an attack of embolism in the brain, due to a weakened heart
caused by rheumatism. During the late winter term, he had
been given a leave of absence from his college duties, and
had been to Indianapolis for treatment. Although quite
weak, he had not been confined to his bed. He was accus-
tomed to walk out of doors when the weather permitted, and
it was while talking to two friends near his residence, that
the final rheumatic attack of the heart muscles came. He
fell to the ground, and was carried into his house evidently
suffering very much. He died soon after. He was evidently
very popular with everybody in Hanover, both in and out
of the college, and his loss is very keenly felt there.

Since my last letter, I've been reading proof. In the
spring of 1910, I was in the employ of Messrs. J. B. Lippin-
cott, Philadelphia. Pa., for a time. Then I read at the Plimp-
ton Press, Norwood, Mass., for a year and four months. Part
of my work there was on "The North American Indian" by
Edwin S. Curtis. During the next year, I continued to live
in Norwood and read proof in Boston. For a time, I was in
the employ of the Rand Avery Supply Company, and for a
365

time, I worked for the F. H. Gilson Company. In January,
1913, I returned to Philadelphia, and read at the Keystone
Publishing Company, and the "William F. Fell Company. In
December, 1913, I came to New York, and read at the Blan-
chard Press, and at the office of Frederick A. Stokes Com-
pany. My work has been varied by teaching as substitute in
the Boston school system, and selling books at retail at Straw-
bridge and Clothier's in Philadelphia. Now I'm reading in
the office of Fremont Payne, law printer, 47 Broad St., New
York. I do not belong to the typographical union. Occa-
sionally, I meet Harvard men in my field of activity. I
heartily wish there were more. I am sorry that I cannot re-

to see you all at the reunion in June. '99 greetings to

My Senior year and the two following years, I spent witb
many other members of '99 in attendance at Harvard Law
School. I was admitted to the bar of Suffolk County at Bos-
ton, February 23, 1901, and practised there till December,,
1905. Then, I folloAved H. Greeley's advice, coming as far
west as possible on this continent. I have lived
at Long Beach, Cal., for the last eight years. I
was admitted to the bar in Los Angeles in Feb-
ruarj^, 1906, and have practised law since then, ex-
cept when holding public office, for three years as
Public "Works Commissioner and at present as Postmaster. I
have not traveled abroad, but have been over the United
States quite thoroughly. After careful consideration of the
claims urged by Charles Dennis in favor of Tacoma (Honest!)
and by Harry Stowell in favor of New Haven (think of
that!) I still believe that next to Boston, Long Beach occu-
pies the most favored portion of the United States. Boston,
by the way, when alluded to on the Pacific Coast means th&
eastern half of Massachusetts. I have been active in poli-
tics (democratic and good government brands) and inter-
ested in matters pertaining to child welfare. For the last
two years, I have been a member of the Probation Commit-
tee of Los Angeles County, and M'as recently appointed one
of a committee of citizens to work with a committee of the

There I remained until September, 1912, and started out as

Nothing eventful has occurred in my fifteen years out of
college. Belonging to the great eighty-five per cent of hu-
manity— that is the poor per cent — I have had a great many
moments during which to speculate as to whether or not I
would be among the fifteen per cent, had I chosen a profes-
sion in '99. The old Elective System, which so many of us
delighted in, was bad for me. My oldest son, who should
graduate in 1924, promises to be a lawyer. The youngest —
probably of the class of 1931 looks like a manufacturer. One

of the greatest; if not the greatest regrets in my life, is the
fact, that I have never been able to attend any of the last
three meetings of our glorious class. Nor will it be possible

oldest will probably be breaking out of college. You will all
have a glorious time this year, and I shall be with you all

During the last five years, I have been attending strictly
to business, that is, to the practice of the law, whenever I
could tind anyone who would let me practice, and have man-
aged so far to keep out of jail, and the hands of the sheriff.
1 have recently moved my offices from 30 Court St., Boston,
to the Sears Building, and shall be glad to greet any fellow
members of '99, either on business or to reminisce on old
times. February 7, 1912, a son was born to Mrs. Ensign
and myself, whom we named Charles Sidney Ensign, 3d, in
the hope of continuing the family name. He was in such a
hurry to see his dad that he came two mouths ahead of time.
"We provided him with an electric incubator, in which we
deposited him for a period of seven weeks, in a temperature
of about 94 degrees. At birth, he weighed four pounds ; he
dropped down to three pounds, three ounces, and then began
to grow large and strong. We furnished him with all the
necessaries of life including a wet nurse, and now he is quite
a husky lad with good lungs and nearly a full set of teeth.
I have been associated in a small way with my classmates,
Childs and Stratton, and with ex-graduate manager of Har-
vard Athletics Garcelon, in The Newton Times, The Water-
town Tribune-Enterprise, and The Stratton Press. Stratton
and I also were two of the guys who helped put the ''win"

nee, Oklahoma in 1900, and began the practice of law, ac-
cording to the very imperfect code in existence at that time.
I was appointed deputy county attorney by Hon. L. G. Pit-
man in 1901, and was elected to succeed him in 1902, my ad-
ministration being endorsed by another election in 1904. I
served as county attorney till the coming of statehood and
submitted my name as a candidate for the democratic nomin-
ation for attorney-general, and was defeated after a very
spirited campaign. Resuming the practice of law at Shaw-
nee, I soon built up a very large practice and reluctantly
gave it up in 1912, to again run for county attorney of Pot-
tawatomie county, and was again elected. This is the last
year of my present term of office, and I am just starting my
campaign for attorney-general of the state. My campaign
will be conducted in the true Harvard spirit, absolutely
above board and on the square, but with just as much 'pep'
as I can put into it. I wish this publication could be delayed
just a few weeks so I could record my victory. I am unmar-
ried, consequently have no children, but imagine I am very

the University of California, where I was a member of two
German clubs, the French club, and played on the Chess
Team in the inter-collegiate matches. Since 1906, I have
been teaching Romance Languages at the Pennsylvania State
College. Here I give an annual exhibition of simultaneous
chess against all comers. After this the Chess Club gener-
ally comes to life and remains in existence about eight weeks.
At the resurrection, I have been often honored with the pres-
idency, but the honor is short-lived. Since 1906, I have
spent one summer in France, and two at the University of
Wisconsin. As for my writings, they consist of short stories,
which have an occasional pecuniary (though no literary)
value, and a polyglot (French-English) play, written for
the Cercle Francais. In-as-mueh as the stories appear under
a pseudonym and the play has not yet appeared, the class is
requested to defer ordering the laurel-crown until further

Five years don't count so much now for a ninety-niner —
we are growing old. I am still after the elusive dollar which
is elusive in the electrical contracting game — occasionally a
guest, but soon departed, but I have got by all right, and in
fifty years or more will be doing very well. The monotony
of this pursuit has been broken however, by a connection
we have made with C. and E. Fein of Stuttgart, Germany,
manufacturers of electric drilling apparatus. In a recent
trip to Germany, I found the fact of my membership in the
world reno^^^led class of '99. Harvard College, to be an asset
in a land where titles and connections cut ice. I am glad to

office, and later accepted a position in the law department of

health, he left the law and went abroad as tutor for two
boys. After his return to America, he continued to tutor,
spending part of each year at Bridgewater, N. H., where he
had a summer camp for boys. In the fall of 1906, he became

Charles Rowell Howe died in a hospital at Brattleboro,
Vt., February 14, 1914. When four years old, his family
moved to S wanton, Vt., thence they moved successively to
Center Ossipee, N. H., and Olean, N. Y., where he entered
the High School from which he was graduated in 1894. In
1895, he entered the Lawrence Scientific School at Harvard,
which he attended two years. Then, he returned to Olean
and worked for his father in the leather business. Subse-
quently he went to Milford, N. H., as foreman for the Milford
Tanning Company, to New Bedford, Mass., as a bookkeeper
for a year, then to Walanga, Tenn., as an assistant in re-
pairing, then to Pittsburg, Pa., where he was employed by a
leather firm. Thence he went to Danvers, Mass., in partner-
ship with C. A. Parker for a while, and then was employed
by the United Shoe Machinery Company, in Beverly for one
season, and afterwards secured a position with the A. C.
Lawrence Leather Company, as appraiser. After his mar-
riage he went to Sault Sainte Marie, Mich., where he took
a position with the Soo Leather Manufacturing Company.
Having himself worked out a process in colored leather he
began the manufacture of same for the company, which prov-
ed to be a success, but after spending six months in the Soo,
he was obliged to give up his position owing to the damp
climate. He then returned to Boston, where he expected to
continue the manufacture of leather, but results were fruit-
less. Having tired of the leather business, he went to engin-
eering for the Asbestos Protected Metal Company, in Can-
ton, Mass., staying with them for two years, until he saw a
better position as an appraisal engineer for the W. A. "Wood
Mowing and Reaping Machine Company, of Hoosick Falls,
N. Y., and was with them two and one-half years, when he
completed the appraisal. On the fourteenth day of October,
1912, he entered the office of the American Appraisal Com-
pany, New York. After six months, the company appointed
him to the engineering office of New England, in which he
made good, and was well liked by all of his superiors. At
the time of his death, the company was going to appoint him
manager of the engineering office in New York, in fact he

was on his way there when taken ill at Brattieboro, Vt. He
loved but one sport, and that was lawn tennis. While in Hoo-
sick Falls, he belonged to the Country Club, and won a silver
cup in a tournament match which was played by the club.
He started to write a book on appraisal work, but had not
completed it at the time of his death.

Joseph Albert Jones, died December 25, 1910, at Gulfport,

and Buffalo, where he received his preparatory education in
public and private schools. He entered Harvard in the fall
of 1895, became a member of Pi Eta and was graduated in
1899. He expected to take the Harvard Law School course,
but ill health compelled him to abandon that plan and he
went to Peru to oversee some business interests of his fath-
er's and to recuperate. Upon his return to America, he took
up various responsibilities in his father's offices in Buffalo
and Gulfport, Miss., and became more and more his father's
right-hand man till in the spring of 1909, when Captain
Jones' health failed, the son assumed the entire responsibility
of the Jones' interests. In one year, and a half, he made for
himself a reputation that will live for many years. Although
young and with small experience, he soon demonstrated his
ability and won not only the commendation, but the admira-
tion of his associates and subordinates. The fine traits of his
character impressed themselves upon all who knew him. His
friends and admirers were numbered by hundreds in aU
classes of society. He worthily filled the place of his father.
In enterprise and generosity he was unexcelled. At the time
of his death, he was first vice-president of the Gulf and Ship
Island Railroad; first vice-president of the Gulfport Missis-
sippi Coast Traction Company, first vice-president of the
Great Southern Hotel Company, president of the Mississippi
Coast Country Club, which he founded, a director in the First
National Bank of Gulfport, the Hattiesburg Compress Com-
pany, and the Niagara Gorge Railroad Company. He was ill
only a short time with what seemed to be a mild ease of
typhoid-malaria, but which developed suddenly into a most
virulent attack, and, before his parents and sister could arrive
from Buffalo, he had gone to his rest. It is said old men
are valued for what they are, and young men for what they

promise to become. Joseph Albert Jones had come to be
valued, both for what he was, and for the great promise he
gave for the future. Mr. Jones was married on September
21, 1907, to Miss Mary R. Seymour, daughter of Horatio W.
Seymour, editorial supervisor of the New York World. Dy-
ing in his prime, Mr. Jones was mourned by all who knew
him. In Gulfport, for which he had done so much, his pass-
ing was regarded as a public calamity. Though gone from
sight, his life and his intluenee live on and in that commu-
nity where he was so beloved, it is felt that no one can ever
quite fill his place.

end is soon in sight, and personally, I am very optimistic. It
is something to be said — that in spite of all the trouble, our
company, employing several thousand men, has never com-
pletely stopped its operations, even during a three days' bat-
tle in the town itself. You ask for a history of "mer" life,
but, I'm like the little school girl on graduation day, who
forgot her lines. Why ? Because I 'm so different from her —
I have no lines to forget. In other words, my life has been
one of those nondescript ones, pegging away and working,
working away and pegging, and so on ad infinitum. I am
happily married, but we have no children — unless one can
call a mongrel pup, ''an child." By the way, should you
happen to know of any '99 's who have a superabundance of
the child article, tell them to ship one or two to us — Mrs. Jim-
mie and myself will gladly take up the burden. (We would
prefer however, those that have past the teething — mumps —
measles — stage). Outside of all this, I'm at present in charge
of the Credit Department of the Cananea Consolidated Cop-
per Company, and not having yet been fired, take it for
granted that so far, my services have been fair to 'midling, '

the business my associates and myself will undertake, will be
Public Accounting in all its branches, and Credit Informa-
tion, with particular attention to business in Mexico. We
will have a good field, and with my two partners, who are
"cracker-jacks," our undertaking should be ultimately suc-
cessful. We have already formed several good connections,
and our finances will be taken care of by an older brother of
mine, now in Havana, Cuba. The firm will operate under
the name of Lawton Brothers and Company.

After eighteen months in the Tropics. I felt sure that the
climate did agree with iis, so when the Board of Agriculture
presented me with a substantial increase in salary in the lat-
ter part of 1910, I resigned my position in the United States
Department of Agriculture, and have lived in Trinidad ever
since. Most of my time has been devoted to the study of the
diseases of cacao, coconuts, and sugar cane and methods of
control. One of the most interesting line of work has been
an attempt, which has proved quite successful, of controlling
one of the serious insect pests of sugar cane by the use of a
parasitic fungus. I enjoy life in the tropics very much,
though it has its disadvantages as well as advantages. One
moving picture theatre and a traveling circus once a year are
the chief outside amusements. Of course it is always more or
less hot, but never excessively hot, the thermometer at night
ranges from 65 to 70, and in the day from 80 to 90 degrees.
I have done a little traveling during the past five years visit-
ing Dutch and British Guiana, Venezuela, Colombia, Panama
and Costa Rica. I make frequent trips to Tobago, Robinson
Cruso's Island, and often see Friday's footprints in the sand.
I had five months' vacation last year, three of which were
spent in the United States, one in travel, and one at Bocas

Albany, N. Y., July 30, 1913. He passed the earlier years
of his life at Newburyport and at Yonkers. N. Y., where his
father was settled as Unitarian minister. On the latter 's
retirement from the ministry because of ill health, the fam-
ily spent a few years at Portsmouth, N. H., and then moved
to Lexington, Mass. There our classmate was prepared for
college. He was educated entirely by his father, and by
private tutors. He entered Harvard as a special studnet in
the autumn of 1895, and was transferred to the class of '99
the following year, but he left college at the end of his So-
phomore year, and entered the employ of Wood, Harmon
and Company, real estate operators in New York City, with
which firm and its successors he continued until his death.
He was first employed as a salesman and rose rapidly through
his energy and ability. In 1898, he took charge of the busi-
ness of the firm in Richmond, Va., subsequently returning
to New York to take charge of the selling department of the
office there. Largely through his resourcefulness, that de-
partment expanded from a purely local institution to one
that reached all parts of the country. In 1908, he was taken
413
Class of 1899 — Fourth Report
into the firm, thenceforth known as William E. Harmon and
Company. He was a member of the Harvard Club of New
York. He was most loyal to Harvard, strong in the faith of
what it could do in the upbuilding of a man, and looking
forward with eagerness to the day when, in his sons, he would
have representatives of himself within its walls. His wife
and three children survive him.

since the last report. I don't remember having been away
from the daily routine of my work in the past five years,
either through illness or for even a vacation. The first page
of this sheet will perhaps explain that. The demand for more
clothes and shoes, and the increased cost of living, have kept
the nose close to the grindstone. Two fine children have come
to keep the others company. They are all that the others
are, and that is saying a good deal. I do not believe in race
suicide. I have kept up my interest in my profession and
moved on a pace. To accept other appointments, I resigned

Dr. Louis Thornton Wilson was born in Webster, Mass.,
January 15, 1876, the son of Louis N. and Anne G. Wilson.
His father was born in England, came to this country in
1871 J but went back to England to study in 1884, so that
Louis spent a part of his boyhood in that country. Coming
back to Ainerica in 1888, the family settled in Worcester,
Mass., and it was from the Classical High School of that city
that Louis entered Harvard College. He graduated with the
class of 1899, having entered the Harvard Medical School the
previous year. After taking his medical degree in 1902, he
spent a year as surgical house-officer at the Children's Hospi-
tal in Boston, and two years at the Boston City Hospital in
a similar capacity. During the last four years, he has been
engaged in the practice of his profession in Boston, and a
little more than a year ago he was chosen to the surgic,al
staff of the Boston City Hospital as its youngest member.
His death occurred just as he was beginning to assert him-
self in his profession and his ability and fitness for his work
were only beginning to be recognized. He had a clean-cut
and definite perception of the goals he was ambitious to
reach, which, with his industry and love of the work, would
have carried him far. He loved his world and the people in
it as well as his work, and his joy in life \vas beautiful to see.
Man, woman, child, animal, all recognized in him a sympa-

thetic friend, and his eagerness to respond to every call upon
him and to heal anybody who asked for his aid or sympathy
became a matter-of course to those who worked with him.
He would have become a wise, conservative and loyal adviser
to many people. He died an unselfish, sweet-souled, gentle-
minded man whose place in the hearts of those who knew him
v/ell will never be filled.
Dr. Paul Thorndike.
Boston Medical and Surgical Journal, July 1, 1909.
Resolutions on the death of Dr. Louis Thornton Wilson:
Louis Thornton Wilson's death came with peculiar bitterness
to the City Hospital Staff. He was one of our own, by train-
ing, tradition, appointment and promotion ; he had worked
with us and was to have worked for many years to come.
For these reasons, as well as for others of a personal nature,
his death afflicts us with exceptional pain. He was the last
surgeon appointed to the staff; a hard worker, much in
earnest, charitable and kindly in judgments, and absolutely
loyal. As we look back, he seems perhaps to have been too
tireless in his duties, too ready to continue without relaxation
the wearying daily exertion of hospital and professional
service. He possessed a personal sympathy, an interest in
the affairs of his comrades, which made the name acquaint-
ance ripen rapidly into the name of friend. Against more
than the usual obstacles he made his way; and in his success
he left no bitterness behind in the hearts of his comrades.
He was tolerant of the beliefs of others, but firm in his own,
a capable surgeon who had won his place, a thoughtful gen-
tleman who looked into the future with quiet confidence. A
verse of Kipling's seems singularly appropriate:
' ' He scarce had need to doff his pride
Nor slough the dross of Earth.
E'en as he trod that day to God,
So walked he from his birth.
In simpleness and gentleness
In honor and clean mirth."

McAuley Academy, Keeseville. About October 1, 1895, I
entered the employment of Rowe, Van Kirk and Pyrke, law-
yers, at Port Henry, N. Y., as stenographer. I remained in
this office until December 31, 1897. I entered Albany Law
School in January, 1898, and completed the course in Ja-
nuary, 1899, passed the state bar examination in January,
and was admitted to practice in March, 1899. I received my
diploma of graduation from Albany Law School in June,
1899. In March, 1899, I commenced the practice of law in
Keeseville, and at various times was a member of the firms of
Hewitt and Wolcott and Mason and Wolcott, and for several
years practised alone. I was associated with S. E. Maders
in the practice of law during the years 1905 to 1912 inclu-
sive. On December 31, 1911, I withdrew from the firm of
Maders and Wolcott, and resigned from the practice of law
to accept a position as district superintendent of schools for
the first district of Clinton County, N. Y., which position I
still hold. I was elected school commissioner for the first
district of Clinton County in 1902, for three years, com-
