Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Triennial Meeting of the Class of Sixty-One, Yale College: With a Biographical Record, and Statistics My Classmates: - When at your request I entered upon the duties of Secretary, I had little conception of the amount of time and attention necessary to their proper performance; and yet, laborious as they have more recently been, I have felt encouraged by the thought that no one of you could read these imperfect records of progress and achievement without receiving a richer and deeper inspiration of enthusiastic love for Sixty-One, and a fresh and powerful impulse in the work of life. It is the peculiar and grateful privilege of our relation as Classmates, that each one of us can contribute much to the permanence and higher development of that hearty class-feeling which has hitherto bound us together. Allow me to make a few suggestions which it is hoped each will act upon. Let every one regard it a duty as well as high privilege to be present at all meetings of the Class. Only insurmountable obstacles in the way can afford a good reason for the absence of any of us. Again, let it be a standing rule with each one to inform the Secretary, without delay, of every change in residence and occupation; any degrees or honors received; ordination to the Ministry; admission to the practice of Law or Medicine; appointment or election to any position; marriage; birth of children, with the names and dates; in short any and all items of personal history which are of interest to your Classmates or which they ought to know. It is very desirable that any announcements or statements in regard to any member of the Class, which may be observed from time to time in the papers of different sections of the country, or in reports and public documents, or may come to your notice in other ways, should be immediately communicated to the Secretary. The careful observance of these suggestions will add much to the interest of any future Report. Doubtless many errors have crept in unawares. You will confer a favor upon concerned by sending a prompt correction. With the hope that the perusal will afford you as much pleasure as I have experienced in the preparation, and that it may unite us all in ever strengthening ties of class-relationship, I submit this work to your kind appreciation, with my best wishes for your individual welfare.
