Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Triennial Report of the Secretary of the Class of 1874 of Harvard College: Secretary´s Report, No; 2, July, 1874 June, 1877 Classmates: The first Triennial Report of the Secretary is herewith submitted to you. I have endeavored to make it as full and correct a record as the answers sent me would allow, and have added such information as I could obtain from other sources. You will doubtless find many errors in the following pages, and will oblige me by calling them to my attention. To those who answered the questions, I hold myself responsible; but, where no replies have been made to my frequent and urgent solicitations, I disclaim all responsibility. The playful answers to the matrimonial interrogatory were many; but, as there was a general sameness in them, I have not deemed it expedient to print them, though by doing so the dull monotony of the record might perhaps have been relieved. The meagre replies, in many cases, have been discouraging, and while it was not expected that the short time since graduation would find you all arrived at the pinnacle of fame and fortune, I did hope to receive more satisfactory replies than some of the Class have made, by stating simply that their lives since graduation had been devoid of any interest to the Class. The usual statistics concerning marriages, and births of children, will be found chronicled at the end of the record of the Class. It is hoped that the Class in the next report will make a better showing in this respect. In the notices of the deceased members of the Class will be found brief abstracts of their lives, and tributes to their memory, prepared by their nearest friends. The condition of the Class Fund is very satisfactory. While some of the instalments are still unpaid, the subscriptions have, as a rule, been promptly paid, though in some cases a gentle reminder has been necessary. We cannot, however, feel any pride in the amount subscribed to the Class Subscription Fund, in comparison with what other classes have done. I would refer you to the statements in the report concerning these funds, for more detailed information. The Class Baby, too, claims your attention to such facts as to his birth and good fortune as are given in this report.
