Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Harvard College Class of 1878 Secretary´s Report, Vol. 7 To The Members of the Class of Eighteen Hundred and Seventy-Eight. The secretary presents herewith Class Report No. VII. No. VI appeared in 1908. Since then the class has suffered a most serious loss in the death of Joseph C. Whitney in 1911, who had been the secretary since graduation. The present report is made up in the main from answers to circulars sent out by the secretary in 1914 and 1915. Noticing that in the last Quinquennial Catalogue of the College the rank of the first ten men in each class at graduation was given, it occurred to the secretary that it would be interesting to obtain from the college archives the rank list of the entire class. He accordingly applied for and secured such a list and has had it printed in the report. He has also printed the names of members of the Phi Beta Kappa society from our class. These are the only two novelties. At the end of the report appear reproductions of recent photographs of such members as were willing to send their pictures to the secretary, also pictures of some deceased members. In 1914 William Howard Taft, Yale 1878, was elected an honorary member of the class, and it was also voted that the graduates of the Lawrence Scientific School who received the degrees of S. B. in 1878 should be treated in all respects as members of the class. Accordingly they have been invited to attend our dinners and meetings since that date, and we have enjoyed the presence of several of their number. At Commencement 1912, at the invitation of Hewins, the class dined at his house in Wellesley. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
