A-f^HARRINGTON, Class Secretary. Commencement, 1889. Snow & Farnham, Printers. 37 Custom House Street. 1889. Copyright, 1SS9, By C. A. Harrington. CLASS OF 83, Classmates : At last I feel that I can make a reply to the question so frequently asked during the last three months, " How is the history coming along ?" and refer you for it to the pages which follow. In them I have endeavored to let each man tell his story in his own words, adding only such things as would make the sketch complete, in order that the individuality of each might be preserved and the hand of the secretary conspicuous only by its absence. If the record of some is the barest outline, and in cases nothing, do not place all the burden upon the sec- retary's shoulders but charge some of it to — it is difficult to choose the fitting word — a modesty which, excessive as it was most unexpected in 'St, men, heroically withstood the allurements of three general circulars and a number of personal letters. One or two matters that appear may demand explana- tion. While considering the suggestion that it would be well to insert the class lists as they appeared in the cata- logues from year to year, I found on inquiry at the college that a large number of catalogues had been destroyed re- cently, and that those from 1879 to 1883 were impossible to obtain. All doubts as to the expediency of including these lists in this work vanished, and you will find the roll of the class for the successive years of our course printed exactly as it appeared, errors and all, in the University Catalogues. So many inquiries have been made respecting matters which could be found only in the programmes of our Class Day and Commencement, particularly for the music of the class tree hymn, that it seemed best to print them also for convenient reference. An examination of the replies to the circulars sent out reveals this most gratifying result, that the class is pros- pering, that the members have cheerfully and earnestly taken up the responsibilities of life, and while none of us are millionaires and some may feel that fortune has not yet deigned to turn her brightest smile upon them, yet on the whole they are men in every sense of the word, doing manly work. Furthermore, not one, so far as heard from, has been taken from us, and we come to this second re- union with full ranks as on the day of graduation. The preparation of this record has been a pleasant task, and if it has been done in a manner to meet your appro- bation I ask nothing more. With kindest wishes to each and every one for the future. Believe me very sincerely your classmate, C. A. Harrington, Secretary. Providence, June, 1889. FRESHMAN CLASS, 1879-80. President — Alfred Williams Anthony. Vice-President— MosKS Clement Gile.

Born at Exeter, Washington County, Rhode Island, July i6, i860. Parents, James M. Aldrich and Joanna R. (Sherman) Aldrich. Preliminary education received in the public schools of West- terly, Rhode Island. He taught school at Kingston, Rhode Island, till June, 1884, was assistant principal of the High School at Flushing, Long Island, from September, 1884, to June, 1885, and was teaching at Kingston again during the school year 1885-86. He then entered upon a three years' course at the College of Physicians and Surgeons in New York City. He says " I have nothing to add to what you already have in the blank filled out by me some- time ago. I have simply been a' student of medi- cine and am now (May, 1889,) within six weeks of graduation, when I hope to take my degree. I 30 fear I shall have to deny myself the pleasure of the reunion in June. I am under engagement for the summer and in the fall my plans are unsettled except that I shall try for a hospital appointment. Remember me to all the boys." Not married. Address, Westerly, Rhode Island. Allen, Edwin Pierce. Born at Somerset, Bristol County, Massachu setts, July 14, 1859. Parents, Pierce B. Allen and Sarah A. (Paul) Allen. Preparatory education at Pierce Academy, Middleboro', Massachusetts. " This communication, though long delayed, will be received in time to be incorporated in the forthcoming history of the class ; otherwise I shud- der to think of the appalling and dismal failure that must inevitably await said publication. Allow me to record here my appreciation for your thought- fulness in providing me with 2, plan, thereby lessen- ing to a great extent the intellectual strain and eliminating from these memoirs much that might be scandalous and impertinent. " Six years have sped on rapid wings since that eventful day in June, 1883, when good old Mother Brown with kindly benediction and God-speed dis- 31 missed us from her classic halls and sent us forth, as we fondly hoped, on the road to fame and for- tune. Now we are asked to pause for a moment in our upward course to relate for mutual edification the honors and successes that have thus far been attained. " My story will be brief. Having always had a strong predilection for the law, and believing that noble science to be best adapted to my ' theory of virtue,' I entered, in the autumn of 1883, the offices of Thurston, Ripley and Company, counsellors at law, Providence, Rhode Island, as a student, and spent the succeeding two years sitting at the feet of Blackstone, Coke and other great masters of the common law, delving deep in the mysteries of legal lore. ' Ignorantia legis nemmem excusat ' was the pillar of cloud by day and the pillar of fire by night that led me through the wilderness of an impecu- nious law student's life into the promised land with- in the bar. I was admitted to the Rhode Island Bar as an attorney and counsellor at law February 1 3, 1886, being first duly sworn to support the consti- tution and laws of the United States and the State of Rhode Island. I at once opened an office at 26 Westminster street, in said Providence, and very 32 soon had occasion to remark how much easier it was to support the constitution than myself. I have continued at the same place ever since, bear- ing the burdens of a small and select but gradually increasing circle of more or less litigious persons. " It is with deep regret that I have to confess my inability at present to give any definite informa- tion as to the time and place of my marriage or the maiden name of my wife. While one after another of the boys have succumbed to the inevitable and are now tasting the joys of connubial bliss, I still remain wedded to my profession alone, and some- times fear lest I may have to terminate even this union by petition for divorce on the ground of non- support. " My travels since leaving the fostering care of Alma Mater are hardly worth mentioning in this chronicle of events, as they have been confined to our own glorious country with the exception of one flying visit to Her Majesty's Dominion across the border. I returned voluntarily, and unaccompa- nied by an officer of the law. " I am forced to record the fact that three years after graduation, Alma Mater, for a cash considera- 33 tion of seven dollars, conferred upon me the degree of Master of Arts. " Although a careful observer and student of politics, I have not as yet entered into active politi- cal life. No offices of honor, trust or profit, have been held by me, unless I may allude to my law office, which, while not without honor, has little profit and far, far too much trust. " I can think of nothing else that is of especial interest to the boys in this connection unless it be to call their attention to the fact that I may always be found at 26 Westminster street, room 9, and I might add that the latch string hangs without. " I believe I have covered in this brief account the salient features of my history for the six years last past, and have endeavored to confine myself to the cold facts, as fiction is unknown to my profes- sion." Address, 26 Westminster street, Providence, Rhode Island. Anthony, Alfred Williams. Born at Providence, Rhode Island, January 13, i860. Parents, Lewis Williams Anthony and Britannia F. (Waterman) Anthony. Preliminary 5 34 education at Mowryand Goff's English and Classi- cal School, Providence, Rhode Island. He writes : "At present I am blessed with four homes, parental, Providence, Rhode Island ; legal, Bangor, Maine ; prospective, Levviston, Maine, United States of America; actual, Berlin, Germany. "As for profession, or as the Germans say, stand, I hold a three-fold. I am a clergyman, I am a professor-elect, I am in Germany a student, im- matriculated in the Theological Faculty of the Berlin University October 23, 1888. " My marriage with Harriet Wyatt Angell, daughter of John Wilmarth and Elizabeth Herman Stillwell, occurred in Grace Church, Providence, September 15, 1S85. I have one child, Elizabeth Williams Anthony, born April 7, 1887." (A second daughter, Margaretha, was born March 17, 1889, at Berlin, Germany, and died the 20th of the same month). " Travels? Yes, in October, 1886, my wife and I visited Ohio, seeing en route Niagara Falls and other points of interest. The secretary of the class was a fellow traveller on the outward trip. In 1887, alone, I visited Europe in my summer vaca- tion, leaving America June 30th, and returning 35 September 4th. The time was not long and yet sufficed for a hasty trip through Ireland, a glimpse of Wales, a few days in the central towns of Eng- land, namely: Chester, Stratford, Kenilworth, Warwick and Oxford, sixteen days in London, a visit to Antwerp and Brussels, then a journey along the Rhine, seeing Cologne, Bonn, Coblenz, Bingen, Mayence and Strassburg. At the last named place I spent three days with our classmate Simonds, then digging into Anglo-Saxon roots in the Strassburg University. He was well initiated in German mys- teries and Strassburg lore, and kindly shared his information with me. In college days we had haunted the police court together, seeking items of a sad, amusing or instructive nature. In a simi- lar way we haunted Strassburg institutions. Then I sped to Paris, stopping a night at Nancy on the way, thence, after eight days through London and Liverpool, to America. Besides Simonds, other Brown men were met on the journey. Carter, '85, was on the steamer, both going and coming ; I trav- elled with him through Ireland, and met him again both in London and Paris. On the same vessel returning were also Faunce, '80, Ferguson and Cole, '84 36 " Li June, 1887, the day before sailing for Eu- rope, I was elected professor of New Testament Languages and Criticism in Cobb Divinity School, a department of Bates College, Lewiston, Maine. In consequence of this election I resigned my pas- torate in Bangor, Maine, to which I had been called in May, 1885 (although I did not assume pastoral charge until September 27, 1885), my resignation taking effect May i, 1888. " With my family I sailed from New York May 19, 1888, for two years' preparatory study in Europe. We spent eight days in Scotland, and then two months in London, where I did some valuable read- ing in the British Museum. Since August 4, 1888, we have been in Berlin. Here the language and literature, the lectures of the university, the music, art, architecture and libraries afford ample oppor- tunities for culture and study. We propose remain- ing abroad — perhaps not all the time in Berlin — until the summer of 1890. " Brown men are to be found on these shores. I just missed of Preston in London, a telegram failing to reach me in season to make a changed appoint- ment effective. French, '85, is now in Berlin, though he goes soon to Strassburg. Hayward, '74, 1 have met 37 here. Jillson, '82, comes here soon with his family from Paris. "Brown granted me A. B. in 1883, and A. M. in 1886. In Junior year I was elected a member of 0. B. K. I am, and am proud to be, a member of Delta Upsilon. Here, in Berlin, I consort with six other members of the order, brothers true. " My authorship consists of a few newspaper contributions, some time ago frequently to the Yout/ts Companion, of late, frequently to The Morning Star (both, of Boston), once to The Chris- tian Union, once to Golden Days. In 1886 and 1887 I contributed occasional notes upon the Sunday- school lessons to the Star series of Sunday-school Quarterlies. " I do not know of other items of interest.

" In June of 1884 I came to this city (Los An- geles, California,) as it was the residence of my father. Instead of returning, as I had expected, I accepted a position to teach in the public school of San Pedro, a few miles from this city. "In 1885 was elected a teacher in the public schools of this city, and after three years' service as teacher and principal, was, in September of 1887, appointed by the Board of Education the superin- tendent pro tem. of city schools, as leave of absence had been granted the superintendent on account of health. After the expiration of this leave of ab- sence I was duly elected deputy superintendent, which position I now hold. " My degree is that of A.

My father retired from the business in 1883, and the two sons are now in proprietorship of the business. I shall be modest and simply say that thus far we have been fairly successful. Our business is in some re- spects a very peculiar one, and success in it depends almost solely on one's aptitude to the business. I am in love with my business, i. e., the nature of it. Have never regretted going into it, and as I look back over the six years intervening since gradua- tion can simply say, even if I have not made a for- tune, that I am satisfied. My residence has been Brooklyn almost since graduation, and I feel per- fectly at home there, more so than any place I know of. ^ In fact New York city and its environs have always had a peculiar charm and fascination for me ever since my first visit here twenty years ago, when, with an unconquerable Rhode Island appetite gnaw- ing at my vitals, I asked for a clambake when sit- ting down to dinner at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. My life during the past six years has been unevent- ful and happy. I have been spared almost miracu- 43 lously, so far, deep sorrow, and have been blessed with perfect health.

In October of the same year I entered the Columbia Law School, where I took the full course, graduating in 1885 with the degree of Bachelor of Laws. In June of the same year I was admitted to the New York Bar. I had been also during my course at Colum- bia a student in the office of Messrs.

" Immediately after my admission to the bar I went abroad for a pleasure trip, and spent three months in travelling in England and on the Conti- nent. " In December, 1886, 1 had a very advantageous offer made me to give up the law and to accept 62 the position of confidential clerk in the banking house of Ladenburg, Thalman and Company, and I accepted the offer. I am still with them in prac- tically the same capacity. It has been my good fortune to be sent on several important journeys by my firm. One of these took me over a great por- tion of the Pacific slope, and also over a great part of the middle Western States and Mexico. Another gave me a very favorable opportunity to see Lon- don and Paris from a commercial point of view. During my connection with Messrs.

" Since leaving Brown nothinor of a startline nature has happened to me that would, I think, be of interest to my brother classmates, but since you insist that some production from my pen should be handed down to posterity, I will try and comply as far as I am able with your modest request. " In August, 1883, I left the occupation I was then indulging in, namely, a polo tournament at Martha's Vineyard, and accepted a position with Culver, Page, Hoyne and Company, of Chicago, as special agent for them for the Hall typewriter. I remained with them nearly three months, and would have done so much longer, but unfortunately for me the house failed, and I will say here S7id rosa that I 71 was not responsible for their failure. I left Chicago and returned to Boston and accepted a position with the same typewriter company, with whom I remained a little over a year. " In December, 1885, I left Boston for Thorn- dike, Massachusetts, to learn the cotton manufac- turing business at the mills of the Thorndike Com- pany, and remained with them until April 20, 1889, at which time I returned to Providence to engage again in the typewriter business. " My statistics, I believe, you have already re- ceived from me, and if you can derive anything that you think will be of interest to the class from the foregoing, you are welcome to do so.

In the autumn of 1883 (September) I began the studies of the senior year in the Baptist Union Theological Seminary, 73 at Morgan Park, Illinois, from which institution I was graduated with the degree of B. D. in May, 1884." His oration at that time was on "Charac- ter and Our Idea of God." " From September, 1884, to May, 1885, I resided at Morgan Park and pursued graduate studies, making a specialty of Ethics and Hebrew. From September, 1885, to June, 1886, I continued work in Ethics, chiefly at Boston, Massachusetts. These graduate studies were pursued under the direction of the University of Chicago, which conferred ui^on me, after exami- nation of a published thesis, the degree of Ph, D., in June, 1886. The thesis was called 'Studies in Moral Law.' In the same month Brown University gave me the degree of A. M. In June, 1886, I was settled as pastor of the First Baptist Church of Vineyard Haven, Massachusetts, in which relation I am still.

More especially for The Standard, Chicago, The Journal and Messenger, Cincinnati, and The Indiana Baptist, Indianapolis, Indiana. " I deeply regret my brief residence in good old Brown and my slight acquaintance with the members of the class of 1883.

(Irons) Harrington. Preparatory education Provi- dence, High School. "While seeking a chance to exchange accumu- lated brain power (if any other meqiber of '83 were the editor rather than the secretary the punctuation after ' power ' would undoubtedly be an interroga- tion mark), for the coin current in this glorious country, a position in the city clerk's office, Provi- dence, then as now in charge of H. V. A. Joslin, Brown, '67, came in my way and was immediately snapped up. I entered upon my duties July 9, 1883, at a salary which indicated either that the brain power aforesaid was not appreciated at its (to the possessor's) full value, or that one person at least in '83 had wasted four years. However that may be, I learned something, and February 9, 1884, succeeded C. A. Burbank, Brown, '78, as mayor's clerk. During the year and a half in which I held this position the executive chair was occupied by Mayor Thomas A. Doyle, and I shall always con- sider it fortunate that I was associated with a man of his acknowledged executive ability. 76 " July 2, 1885, very much to my surprise, the city council elected me, after eleven ballots, clerk of the Municipal Court of the city, in the place of C. C. Mumford, Brown, '81, resigned. This court ex- ercises probate jurisdiction, and is presided over by Judge Joseph E. Spink, Brown, '65. This office, to which I had been annually elected, was resigned May 18, 1889, to accept a position in the Mechan- ics Savings Bank, Providence. "The prospect of meeting the 'boys' at the triennial reunion so elated me that I determined to celebrate seven dollars' worth and write A. M. after my name with the rest. My only claim to this de- gree was general reading in history and some in law while in the mayor's office. " My efforts in literature have been confined to the preparation of essays before one or two local literary societies. - " Matrimonial ventures confined solely to at- tendance on some other fellows. Bachelor sure. " Eight weeks of vacation in six years have not enabled me to make extended tours, and the only time that I have been over a hundred miles from Providence was in October, 1886, when I took a two weeks' trip to Chicago and Cincinnati." Address, Mechanics Savings Bank, Providence, Rhode Island. Harris, William. Born at San Jose Valley, Alemeda County, California, October 27, i860. Son of Abraham W. Harris and Hannah (Bucknell) Harris. Prelimi- nary education received at Mowry and Goff's English and Classical School, Providence, Rhode Island. " Leaving college to battle with the world, his capital was in his brain, and his future livelihood was his ability to use the theories in a practical way. The engineer in theory learned his profession from the beginning in the field, and, in the course of one year, hard work and patient efforts won the praise of his chief, and by his letters and those of his fellow-engineers, gained appointment as United States Deputy Mineral and Land Surveyor for New Mexico, in the year 1884. Mining engineer- ing appeared his forte, and by careful work gained the confidence of the best people in the territory." He married Miss Kate Burnside, the daughter of Samuel Burnside and Melinda Burnside, of Car- lyle, Illinois, at Deming, New Mexico, April 18, 1888. They have one son, born February i, 1889, and named Frank Burnside Harris. 78 "Will " is now engineer for the Illinois Mining Company, of Kingston, and also for the Enterprise Mining Company, still holding his commission un- der the Surveyor General of the territory.

He immediately took up pastoral work as assistant rector of the Church of the Mes- siah, Providence, Rhode Island. The parish in which this church is located is large, and situated in the midst of a rapidly increasing community, and severely taxes both the time and energies of its rectors. So well did he meet these requirements that there was a demand for him in a higher sphere of usefulness, and June 3, 1888, he was called to the rectorship of St. Paul's Church, Peabody, Massa- chusetts, which is his field of labor at the pres- ent time. 8o The following is taken from an article in one of the Providence papers : . . . " During his connection with the Church of the Messiah he has drawn to him a large circle of friends by his many estimable qualities, and his earnest cooperation with the rector in extending and executing the work of the parish has contributed largely to the great prog- ress that has been made, particularly in the mis- sion work at Manton and Mount Pleasant." He was married October 3, 1888, to Mary E. Baker, elder daughter of William H. and Caroline F. Baker, at the Church of the Messiah, Provi- dence, Rhode Island.

Preparatory education received at the Uni- versity Grammar School, Providence, Rhode Island. His class letter is as follows : " You know we who chose business for an oc- cupation, had, perhaps for a while after leaving college, a comparatively uneventful life, so you must pardon me if my sketch is quite short. On gradu- ating I went at once to Boston, and was for about two years with Thayer, Babson and Company, dye- stuffs, and Fairbanks, Brown and Company, the 85 manufacturers of the Fairbanks scales. With this initiation into business I accepted a better opening in the Brooks Chocolate Mills, importers and manufacturers of cocoa, and was about to be ad- mitted into partnership, when the factory was entirely destroyed by fire, which, with the attendant loss, caused the abandonment of the anticipated change in the concern. I now intend to go into banking in the west. " I have not found hard work at business es- pecially conducive to much exertion in a political or literary way, so in that line I have but little to report. Have had occasion to make several busi- ness trips west and south, going as far as Denver, and have just spent a few months' vacation in Eu- rope, largely in the usual travelled routes, England, France, Switzerland and Germany, ever impressed, as I think we all are, by the contrast offered with the brilliant present and still more brilliant prom- ised future of this our country." Condition in life, bachelor. Address, 97 Congdon street, Providence, Rhode Island. 86 Manning, Henry Parker. Born at Woodstock, Windham County, Con- necticut, October 3, 1859. Parents, John M.

I was teacher of mathematics for one year in Cook Academy, Havana, New York, then for three years tutor in a family in Cumberland, Maryland, succeeding F. L. Shepardson in that position, and the two years since that time I have been principal here (St. George Academy, St. George, West Vir- ginia).

E. fraternity, of which the deceased was a member, were published in the Brunonianoi January 13, 1883, but the name of another, not a member of '83, was included in these resolutions, and it did not seem best to more than call attention to the fact.

Leaving college in April of our senior year, I accepted a position in an academy in Barre, Ver- mont. Since then I have taught in the Hia;h School at Woonsocket, Rhode Island, in Greylock Insti- tute, South Williamstown, Massachusetts, and in the High School at Gloucester, Massachusetts. I am now holding the position of instructor of sci- ence in the High School at Salem, Massachusetts, having come here in September, 1887. "July 5, 1888, I was married at Gloucester, Massachusetts, to Miss Blanche M., daughter of Henry A. and Mary M. Swett, of Gloucester, Massachu setts. " I received the degree of A. M., Brown Uni- versity, 1886." Address, 32 Hathorne street, Salem, Massa- chusetts. 93 Nightingale, Horatio Rogers. Born December 26, 1 861, at Providence, Rhode Island. Parents, Horatio R. Nightingale and Anna E. (Pratt) Nightingale. Preliminary education re- ceived at Rev. C. H. Wheeler's Preparatory School. After leaving college in April, 1881, he spent two and one-half years learning the manufacture of cotton goods, first with the Smithville Manufactur- ing Company, and second with the Elmwood Manu- facturing Company. December 24, 1883, he entered the service of the Household Sewing Ma- chine Company as clerk, and remained with that firm about nine months. September i, 1884, he was admitted a member of the firm of Warren, Salisbury and Nightingale, " Importers of and Deal- ers in Iron and Steel." He was married in East Greenwich, Rhode Is- land, January II, 1888, to Mary Slater Rhodes, eldest daughter of Henry A. and Hannah W. Rhodes, and has a daughter, Harriet Frances Nightingale, born February 23, 1889. Address, Providence, Rhode Island. 94 Ordway, Lucius Pond. The only communication from him is dated August 12, 1887, and among other things says: " About myself there is very little to tell. I came to St. Paul in the autumn of 1883, and started with the firm of Wilson and Rogers, and after working for them about two years, Mr. Wilson retiring, I became a member of the firm. Married the daugh- ter of Judge J. M. Gilman in April of 1885, and have had two boys, John G. and Samuel M. I am very pleasantly situated here in St. Paul, and expect to make it my permanent home."

" Preparatory education at Mowry and Goff's English and Classical School. " After graduation spent a few months in de- ciding what I would like to do for a livelihood, and a few more in finding out what I could get a chance to do. In November, 1883, entered the book and stationery store of William T. Tibbitts, well known 95 to college men, and in January, 1884, entered into partnership under the style of Tibbitts and Pres- ton, for prosecuting the book and stationery busi- ness in all its branches. "February 14, 1884, married Florence Mary Spencer, daughter of Jonathan L. Spencer and Mary A. (Briggs) Spencer. " My life since graduation has been rather un- eventful. I have held no ofifices of ' honor, trust or emolument.' If I have any qualifications for hold- ing public office neither myself nor my fellow citi- zens have discovered them. In 1886, with others of our class, I received the degree of A. M. from our Alma Mater in course. " What little time I have been able to com- mand for study since leaving college has been given to American history, and prepared ' Docu- ments Illustrative of American History,' issued by Messrs. G. P. Putnam's Sons, of New York, in 1886. It is mainly a collection of charters and state pa- pers of importance in our history, and is designed for use in higher education and for a reference book. It has been used at Harvard and other col- leges. 96 " In the spring of 1887 went south, visiting ^?2 route the cities of the Atlantic seaboard, Washing- ton, Richmond, Wilmington, Charleston and Jack- sonville, and after a brief stay among the pine barrens and orange groves of Orlando, Florida, botanizing and resting, returned to Providence. In the spring and summer of 1888 made a flying trip in Europe, landing at Liverpool on May day. We reached London by easy stages, visiting Chester, delightful Warwick, Stratford (missing Simonds by only two days) and Oxford, which charmed with its venerable colleges and quiet quadrangles. After a rest in London we started west to Gloucester, Worcester, Hereford, each with its cathedral, the valley of the Wye, Tintern, with its ruined abbey, Bristol, so dif- ferent from our drowsy town on Mount Hope Bay, Plymouth, with Pilgrim memories, Penzance and Cornwall to Land's End, where we stood and looked towards home. Thence back to London along the south coast, glancing at Exeter, Salisbury, that ' blonde beauty ' among cathedrals. Isle of Wight, Chichester and Brighton. Next to Brussels, whence in turn to damp Hague and Paul Potter's Bull, Amsterdam, Cologne, Rhine, Mayence, and Strass- burg with its clock and storks. Switzerland we 97 enjoyed thoroughly, though our stay was necessarily brief, touching Lucerne, Interlaken, Berne and Geneva. In Paris the book stores proved one of the principal attractions, as the increased weight of our baggage testified. " Returning to England, we, as in duty bound, made the tour of the English and Scotch lakes, and even the Caledonian canal. From Edinburgh, our appetite for cathedrals being still unsatiated, we made a curve, including Durham, York and Lin- coln, and ending in North Wales — or rather in Providence, which we reached in the fall, with the pleasantest memories of 'our old home.'"

Daniel Shepard- son, D. D. and Eliza (Smart) Shepardson. Pre- liminary education received at the Preparatory Department of Denison University, Granville, Ohio. In his letter he says. " I have often looked back with pleasure to days at Brown, with fond wish that I might revisit the campus, but a life busy with care has kept me away and the Com- mencement exercises here (Granville, Ohio,) have made my going at such a time impossible. I was married September 3d, 1884, to Miss Cora Whit- comb, of Clinton, Vermillion County, Indiana, youngest daughter of Hon. John Whitcomb and lOI Margaret (Whitcomb) Whitcomb. We have one child (class baby) John Whitcomb Shepardson, born in Clinton, Indiana, July 25, 1885. 1883-87 I was teacher, and part of the time, 1885-7, was vice-president of the Young Ladies Institute, Granville. From June to September 1887 I (loafed) waiting for something to turn up and then boug-ht a half interest in the Granville Times book and job printing house, and became editor of the Times, which position I still hold. In 1888 we purchased a book store here and now run the two in combination. I was president of the ' Granville Ohio Historical Society,' which existed from 1885 to 1887 and then died. I have been president of Granville Hose Company No. i, and several times have distinguished myself by heroic conduct at fires. I have been a member of the local Re- publican committee for several years, and have been a delegate to a number of Republican state, district and county conventions. "Since 1883 I have been associate editor of the Beta Theta Pi, the fraternity organ published in Cincinnati, Ohio." Address, Granville, Licking County, Ohio. I02 Shepardson, John Whitcomb. Class Baby, " was born at the home of his maternal grandfather in Clinton, Vermillion County, Indiana, Saturday morning, July 25, 1885, at ten minutes after eight, weighing ten pounds and a quarter. He laughed when ten days old, if an}' one spoke to him, and before he was a month old was an expert talker in baby language. His first tooth appeared three days before he was six months old and his second four days after that time. When less than a year old he could walk very well, and October i, 1886, deliberately picked up an iron dumb bell and carried it across the floor. It would be impossible to describe the steps in his progress, ' to follow the gossamer links by which the manikin feels his way out from the depths of the great unknown into the light of day,' but his parents and all who know him think he is a wonderful child. " He is the pet of all, and living in a seminary for young ladies he receives much attention. His name is usually shortened to Whitcomb." It is only just to say that the above sketch was sent the secretary April 5, 1887, but it seemed proper to insert it as giving the class an authentic account of the early days of their protege. I03 Shepardson, Frank Lucius Born at Princeton, Washington County Maine, April lo, 1861. Parents Lucius F. Shepardson and Maria L. (Gage) Shepardson. PreHminary education at the Providence, Rhode Island, High School. "Was graduated from college June, 1883. During the summer I tutored a candidate for • Brown, at Ocean Beach, New Jersey. Served as a pedagogue in a private school, at Cumberland, Maryland, from September, 1883, to June, 1884. From September, 1884, to present date, I have taught in Worcester Academy, beginning at the bottom round. I received promotion from time to time till February, 1887, when I was made first assistant principal, which position I now hold. " Summer of 1886 I lived a nomadic life, spend- ing my time in Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine, — till finally I found myself in the extreme eastern part of the last named state, — Why ? because there was a certain young lady there. Who.-" Enough to say, she afterwards be- came Mrs. Shepardson. " Summer of 1887 I spent travelling in Europe. Sailed from port of New York, June 25, via I04 Anchor Line, reached Glasgow, Wednesday noon, July 6, a lone traveller, three thousand miles from home. I took a trip which is very often taken by American travellers, — from Glasgow through the Lakes of Scotland via Sterling to Edinboro', where I stopped three days, from there to Abbots- ford and Melrose, where I met A. D. Cole, Brown, '84. From there I went through the English Lakes, Eastern England to Cambridge and London, where I spent ten days visiting the City and its suburbs, — then across the Channel into Belgium and Germany up the Rhine to Switzerland, — went over the Swiss Lakes and through the Swiss passes to Geneva, — then to Paris where I spent a week Here by the tomb of Napoleon L met R. H. Fergu- son, Brown, '84. Returning to London I stopped there four days, — then to Stratford, Rugby, Ox- ford, Chester and Liverpool. Thence back to Glasgow where I took a run into the country of Robert Burns and back. Then my time was ' up.' It was the 25th of August, and the next day I started back for America, reaching my own native soil September 4th, after an absence of eleven weeks and two days. I05 "On the evening of the 25th of June, 1888, I was led before Hymen's Altar at which I paid the most solemn vows. At last I had won another over to be one with me, — which one I don't know, most likely the other one." (Frank means that June 25, 1888, he married Miss Sarah Whidden, daughter of Charles R. and Mila F. Whidden, at Worcester, Massachusetts.) " In the Fall we, not I, returned to Worcester Academy, where we still live and expect to be found the next twelve months at least. The latch string is always out for any member of '83."

Sherwood. Preparatory edu- cation under the private tutorship of C. F. Barker, M. D., of Newport, Rhode Island. "Graduated from Brown, June, 1883. Entered the Newton Theological Institution, September of the same year, took the regular classical course and graduated in June, 1886. Had previously accepted 14 io6 a call to a Baptist church about to be formed in North Abington, Massachusetts, and was ordained to the ministry April 14, 1886, at which time the church was formally organized and recognized by sister churches. " Married Annie S. Easton, daughter of Henry T., and Martha A. Easton of Newport, Rhode Island, June 15, 1886, and at once took up resi- dence at North Abington. In just seventeen months from the date of their organization the church of which he was pastor dedicated a beauti- ful and convenient church edifice. Has taken an active interest and prominent part in the work of the denomination, speaking and officiating at councils, conventions and associational meetings. Has written several articles for the local press and some of his sermons have been printed. Has had and refused calls to larger fields. Family consists of himself, wife, and one daughter, Carrie Grace, born September i, 1887." Address, North Abington, Massachusetts. Silver, Edgar Oscar. Born at Bloomfield, Essex County, Vermont, April 17, i860. Parents, Albert Allen Silver and I07 Sarah Warren (Jenne) Silver. Preliminary educa- tion received at the Derby Academy, Vermont, and Waterville (Maine) Classical Institute. His letter is as follows : " In common with what I doubt not will be true of the larger part of our class, I find that my message must be one of experience rather than achievemejit. The thought comes to me as I attempt to comply with your request, what a pity that a few more years could not elapse before the members of '83 are called upon to account to the old class for their stewardship since graduation ! But I remember that you request a truthful account of our individual experiences since leaving college, and though scarcely able, as I pause and recall the past, to realize that we are indeed ' alumni ' in the midst of the activities, responsibilities and demands of this busy life, and with something of the feeling that we used to have on our return to college after a long summer vacation, when we reviewed to each other the experiences of the vacation weeks, I en- deavor to summarize the six busy years since we separated. " One week from the Monday following the memorable Commencement of '83 found me en- io8 deavoring to settle myself to the details of the pub- lishing business in one of its branches. That day (July ist, '83), I began work for Messrs. D. Apple- ton and Company, publishers, of New York, in their New England office, then No. 6 Hawley street, Boston. Several months later, I was trans- ferred to the educational department of their home ofifice. New York city, entering upon my work there April 2, 1884. I remained in this position until the following year, when I resigned to accept the management of a small publishing interest, with headquarters in Boston. This position I held from April 21, 1885, until September i, 1886, when the firm Silver, Rogers and Company (publishers), was formed. This partnership was succeeded April 16, 1888, by the firm Silver, Burdett and Company, consisting of my brother, Elmer E. Silver, Brown, '85, Henry C. Deane, Frank W. Burdett (Harvard, '83,) and myself ; the business of our firm is that of publishers of school, college and miscellaneous books. " In thus choosing the occupation of a pub- lisher, my life work has been turned into a channel which, though unexpected, even up to the time of my graduation, proves thus far to be very congenial, log and while full of its own peculiarly exacting and sometimes laborious and perplexing details, has nevertheless many compensating features. While my turning to it for an occupation has been rather the result of circumstantial leading, I find myself thus far well contented, and hope to find in it a career of usefulness. " While in college, as my classmates are well aware (and I trust this is remembered by our prize men with becoming gratitude), I was not guilty of snatching away prize honors from the brows of worthier classmates, nevertheless, since then, I have been most generously remembered at the hands of another and very amiable Alma Mater. I was married on the 4th of January, 1888, in Providence, to Miss Susan Florence Maine, Wellesley, '86, daughter of Ephraim Wheeler and Catharine (Thompson) Maine. My time since graduation has been, as you will observe, very fully occupied in business. Neverthe- less, I have had opportunity occasionally for an en- joyable and profitable outing. The most notable experience of this kind was a trip to the Pacific coast with my wife, July and August, 1888, in the course of which we visited many of the points of no interest in the Rocky Mountains, the Yosemite Valley, Portland (Oregon), Tacoma and Seattle on Puget Sound (where I had a short but enjoyable visit with our classmate Abram Barker), the Yel- lowstone National Park and many other points of interest. " As I review the years that are past, in view of the approaching second triennial reunion, now so near at hand, I am impressed with the deep cause for gratitude which we each have in the fact that, so far as is known up to the time of this writing (May 15, 1889,) the ranks of our class have not been broken by death, and that, so far as heard from, each member of the class is busily at work in some line of use- ful and honorable occupation, which let us hope will yield in the years to come that success which will be well deserved. " Permit me to thank the members of the class for the honor conferred in my election to the presidency of the class three years ago, and for the hearty and friendly cooperation so generally shown since then, also to add my cordial best wishes to each member of '83." Address, 6 Hancock avenue, Boston, Massa- chusetts. Ill SiMONDS, William Edward. Born at Peabody, Essex County, Massachu- setts, September lo, i860. Parents, Edward Simonds and Mary A. (Chase) Simonds. Pre- liminary education received at the High School Peabody, Massachusetts, and Phillips Academy, Andover, Massachusetts. His first two years after graduation from Brown were spent as instructor in the High School at Providence, Rhode Island. He sailed direct for Antwerp, July 11, 1885, from thence proceeding by easy stages to Berlin where he met Crosby, and settling in a quiet part of the city, by the beginning of October was fairly at work in his course. He writes, " I attended a great many more lectures that winter than I could possibly have understood, or than I could possibly have digested even if I had. My specialty was old English. The presence of Crosby and his mother added in- finitely to our content. There was no lack of social life and theatres, concerts and the opera were only too frequent and effective in their provision for amusement and distraction. In March of 1886 we made a change. The Crosbys as well as we turned our backs on gay Berlin and set our faces 112 toward the south. They were bound for Tubingen, we for Strassburg. Before our final separation, however, we took a most deHghtful trip together, visiting Dresden, Progue, Vienna, Salzburg, Munich, Nuremburg and spending about a month along the route. Then we went each his own way and I came in April to the city of the Minister and the Storks. Strassburg did more for me than simply to impress and charm me by its quaintness and its reminiscences of antiquated elegance. At its University I found the man who better than any other man in Europe could tell me what I wished to know in my chosen department, that man was professor Bernhard ten Brink. Always treated by him with the greatest kindness and consideration, ever relying on his guidance, in constant attendance upon his lectures and seeing much of him in social intercourse I came to have a profound admiration for his scholarship and to feel myself honored in counting him my master and friend. "When March of 1888 came round I found myself ready for examination. My thesis on Sir Thomas Wyatt and his Poems had been examined and accepted by the faculty ; I had the ordeal of the 'oral ' before me. The day arrived and in full dress with a palpitating heart I presented myself before "3 my judges. There were three : ten Brink, Martin, Groeber. The first examined me an hour in EngHsh, the second half an hour in German, the third a hke time in French. Each of the three was expected to cover, if he chose, all the ground implied in his subject from pre-historic time to the present : philology and literature were both in- cluded. Well! the prospect was indeed enough to make one shudder; but the reality, as of tens hap- pens, proved less formidable than its anticipation. The whole affair passed off pleasantly, the pro- fessors bore themselves in the kindest manner and the two hours were soon over ; my course in Ger- many was ended. " Matters were soon arranged for our home coming and our cheery Strassburg home was left behind. It was with a pang of real regret that we saw the tall, lone spire fade in the twilight as we rolled swiftly across the familiar Alsatian plains on the night express to Paris. Two weeks in Paris, a fortnight in London, a trip to the north via Oxford, Stratford and thence to Edinborough, brought us on the loth of May, to Glasgow. Our first day in Europe was spent in the international exposition at Antwerp ; it was a coincidence that our last day on 15 114 foreign shores was passed in a manner precisely similar, in the exposition at Glasgow. The after- noon of the day following, found us on board the comfortable Furnessia; with a pleasant ship's company and fair weather we arrived in due time with no misadventure to report and only pleasant, grateful memories of our stay abroad. From May until September of 1888 was spent for the most part in Providence and Boston, and in Nashua, New Hampshire. In the latter part of the month last named, I received an unexpected call to an instructorship in German at Cornell University, where I now find myself most agreeably situated, thoroughly enjoying my work and with the added pleasure of association with Andrew, Wheeler and several other Brown men of a generation earlier or later than our own. The memory of Alma Mater has by no means passed from mind, for her and for the members of '83 I desire only the best of things; the most brilliant and enduring success." Not married.

Prehminary education received at the Connecticut Literary Institute, Suffield, Connecticut. " If the history of the class of '83 is to be a record of the achievements of its members a very Httle space will suffice for me. " If it is to tell what they have not done, I fear that my part will be sadly disproportionate to the rest. I have not written a single book or magazine article or even a newspaper article that deserves mention. I have not travelled nor have I been honored with any college or other degrees. I have not even taken to myself a wife, nor am I prepared to disclose anything about my mother-in-law. Yet I have not spent all this time in state prison or in- sane asylum, nor have I been altogether idle. " Upon graduation at the Rochester Theo- logical Seminary three years ago I accepted the pastorate of a newly organized Baptist church, at Tonawanda, New York. Since that time it has been my privilege to see the membership of the church increase from eighteen to one hundred, and ii8 to see a new and very handsome church built. The church organization and the church building are all that I have to point to as the result of my last three years' work. I am quite contented with my obscurity, and shall hear with much pride and satis- faction of the more brilliant achievements of my honored classmates." Address, Tonawanda, New York. Van Meter, Fred. No information respecting him has been received. White, William Edward. The only information received is that in February, 1883, he was in the freight department of the Old Colony Railroad, Boston, but in April, 1887, he was not there nor could any trace of him be found. Whittemore, Frederic Ellsworth. Born at Bolton, Middlesex County, Massa- chusetts, March 25, 1861. Parents Thomas Jefferson Whittemore and Louisa Maynard (Rice) Whittemore. Preliminary education received at the High School at Ashland, Massachusetts. 119 In the fall of 1883, he accepted the position of principal of the High School at Ashland, Massachusetts, where he taught for three years. Writing in March, 1887, he says, "Last Au- gust (1886) I was proffered a position by the New West Education Commission, and have since that time been in its employment. My field of labor has been thus far in New Mexico where we are en- deavoring to establish good schools. The educa- tional provisions of the territory are inadequate to obtain the true objects aimed at in education, but under the directions of the New West Commission several good schools and academies have been or- ganized and are being well supported." His work with the commission continued for a year when he returned East and took charge of the High School at Weston, Massachusetts, where he is at present located. He is not married.

Preparatory education at the Connecticut Literary Institute, Suffield, Connec- ticut. Writing from New Haven, March 16, 1887, he states that he is an attorney-at-law, and a graduate of the Yale Law School, and was admitted to the bar in July, 1883. He says, " In August, 1885, I was appointed deputy coroner, for New Haven County which office I now hold. In December, 1885, I was elected city clerk of this city to fill a vacancy caused by the death of the incumbent of the office. I held that position from December i, 1885, to January i, 1887. In December, 1886, I ran again for city clerk and was defeated by 243 votes, running several hundred ahead of my ticket." 121 Since December i, 1887, he has been a resi- dent of St. Paul, Minnesota, where he is a success- ful practitioner in the law firm of Merrill and Willett. Address, National German-American Bank Building, St. Paul, Minnesota. Williams, Clarence Otis. Born at North Foster, Providence County, Rhode Island, November 10, 1859. Parents Stephen P. Williams and Hannah (Brown) Williams. Preliminary education received in the public schools of Providence, Rhode Island. " In accordance with three requests and ominous threats from the secretary I sat down fully two hours ago to write up my history, but have had a woeful time ransacking the accumulated junk of memory to find something that would interest such charitable critics even as one's college classmates. " The autumn following graduation I ac- cepted an election to the position of instructor in Latin and metaphysics in the New Hampton Literary Institute of New Hampton, New Hamp- shire. 16 122 " There I remained three years, where in ad- dition to the Latin and metaphysics I taught several terms each of geology, zoology, physiology, algebra and geometry. From New Hampton the fates directed my course to Lewiston, Maine, where I found a long desired opportunity of pursuing the study of Hebrew in connection with my professional work. In this city are situated Bates College, Cobb Di- vinity School and Nichols Latin School. At the same time I entered the Divinity School and was elected instructor in Latin and Mathematics at the Latin School. Besides this instruction and study, three hours each day were given to private pupils while my Sabbaths were devoted to the pul- pit of the South Lewiston Free Baptist Church. One year and two months later I was elected to my present position, Waldron professor of the Latin language and literature in Hillsdale Col- lege, Hillsdale, Michigan.

He entered the Harvard University Medical School, from which he graduates this June, entitled to an M. D. after his name. He writes, " I am afraid that you will find my history far from interesting, and I have found it for all practical purposes much the same, in fact I can think of nothing to add to the very meagre answers to the questions of the circular. If possible I want to be present at the reunion this year, as I missed the last three years ago, but examinations, the bete noir of every student, may prevent me now as then."

Once more together stand. Clasping the friendly hand, Greeting with cheer, Brothers of years ago. Whose hearts together flow, And whose aftections grow Firm with each year. Six years in circling round Still all our hearts have found Loyal to " Brown." O, may her future yield Fruits from a richer field ; Grand influences may she wield Long wear her crown. 4- May he who rules the skies, Look still with loving eyes ; Guide by His hand, — That we, oft met before, May, on life's other shore, Meet, but to part no more : No broken band. —J. N. Eno. APPENDIX. CLASS. FUND. At a class meeting in June, i8SS, it was unanimously decided that 'S3 should place itself in line with some of the older classes of Brown and raise a fund to be placed at her disposal, and subscriptions were invited. The response has been quite general, though the amount is not what had been hoped for. In considering the financial matters of the class at the reunion, June 18, 18S9, it was considered best to keep the money in two distinct funds. One, the inci- dental fund, which will show a balance on hand over all drafts upon it, is to be drawn upon to pay the running expenses of the class, postage, etc., etc. ; the other, the permanent fund, the subscriptions to which amount to over $225, is to be kept intact with its accumulations of interest, and still further increased till such time as the class desire to turn it over to the college; the present inten- tion being to raise a fund which shall be known for all time as the fund of the class of '83, the income of which shall be devoted to a specific purpose, and not have it merged with any other fund or absorbed in the common fund, so called, of the college. The matter will be brought to your further consideration by the treasurer, who has been empowered by the class to adopt such measures as will best secure the desired object.
