Dear Brothers of '6$ : In giving to you the result of my labors in your behalf, my wish is that it may be perfectly satisfactory. In 1881 I wrote to A. H. Foster, and suggested that this work be done, and that I was willing to help do it. A preliminary movement to accomplish this was put in opera- tion by David E. Bradley, and circulars sent to every member, and a Class organization formed through ballot by mail, resulting in the election of Nathaniel H. Clement, President; John Scales, Recording Secy; Addison H. Foster, Corresponding Sec'y. Then the work was taken up by Foster, and a great amount of corresponding done ; the letters he received being forwarded to me. If facts are omitted, or errors appear, pardon the mistakes and for- ward the corrections, for the future pleasure and profit of our Class. JOHN SCALES. Dover, X.

He returned immediately to his home in Town- send and was taken down sick with what appeared to be scarlet fever, but 28 it soon developed into the most malignant type of typhoid fever which had a run of five weeks and left him on the bank of the river of death; he rallied and for a while seemed likely to recover, but was soon attacked with consumption and died on the 18, Feb. 1866. I have before me a long letter from his mother in which she gives many interesting details concerning his early life and last sickness. He was always in earnest in whatever he took hold off; he was never satisfied till he understood all the whys and the wherefores; he possessed a high de- gree of mechanical skill; he was extremely fond of music, and could play the violin with great skill and accuracy. When in college he was somewhat skeptical in his religious views, but previous to his death he be- came a sincere believer in Christ as his Saviour. Had our classmate lived to old age there is no reason to doubt he would have had a brilliant and useful career. PAYMASTER STEPHEN RAND Jr., A. B. Stephen Rand Jr., son of Stephen and Rebecca B.

With great coolness he picked up his revolver with his left hand and passed to the rear, where he remained forty-eight hours in a dilapidated building, without doors or windows, in his wet clothing; he was conveyed to Fortress Monroe and sent home, where he arrived in fifteen days after receiving the wound that deprived him of his arm.

He held the office of assistant-assessor, and assessor of his internal revenue district 1870-3; solicitor of Grafton county 1873-76; a member of the Gov- ernor's Council 1876.

He was a favorite in his district and his fellow citizens delighted to honor him. He died of pneu- 40 monia Nov. 30, 1880, at his home in Littleton, New Hampshire.
