Book Description

Excerpt from Decennial Record of the Class of Eighty-One The pages of this Record Show in detail what the vari ous members of the Class have done in the past ten years and how each one has thus far filled the niche which has been set apart for him in the world. A few general facts gathered from these brief sketches may be of interest. There were connected with the Class during the four years which were spent at Amherst, 106 men; of this number, 74 graduated, 3 of the remainder died during the course and 29 left the Class before graduation. Our loss by death while the Class was in college was rather larger than usual, but since graduation the number of those who have died has been comparatively small only 4 of the graduates and 3 of the non-graduates have died during the past ten years, so that 10 has been our total loss by death in the fourteen years that we have known each other. The mortality among the wives and children of the members of the Class has also been small, only three deaths having occurred among the children the wives of two of the Class have died.
