Cn his father's side he comes of that hardy and masterful English stock which rules the sea and has subjugated men and nature in important portions of every continent. From his mother, who was born in Germany, he inherits the philosophical bent of mind which goes far to explain his success, both as student and teacher. In the location of his early home Professor Tuttle was singularly fortu- nate. His father's farm is in one of the most beautiful regions of New England. Bounding the spacious valley on the east, lies the great, smooth mass of the partly wooded Pelham hills, to the south stretches the rugged and picturesque Holyoke Range, whose highest peak is Mt. Tom, westward, across the broad and placid Connecticut, are the distant and yet imposing Berkshire Mountains g to the north, some nine miles away, stands Sugar Loaf, rising so abruptly from the river bank that it seems like a gigantic fortress guarding the wide and fertile valley at its feet. Across the river, and further to the northeast, is the noble dome of Mt. Tobey, the loftiest and one of the most characterful of the mountains in this part of Massachusetts. But line as are the valley and the mountains, finer yet is the sky. The secret of its charm may be hard to tell, but all who with open eyes live underneath it come soon to feel the spell of its surpassing beauty. He fitted for college at Hopkins' Academy, Hadley, Mass., graduating in 1879, and entered Amherst College immediately as a member of the Class of '83, The four years of college were spent in hard, earnest work. Every study was given its full due, and the results were not only immediate, and in some respects brilliant, scholastic success, but, what was worth far more, the de- velopment of a spirit and the formation of habits which were to make intellec- tual growth and acquisition the characteristics of later years. He knew as little ofluxury as of idleness, like many others who have made the best use of college opportunities, he met a considerable portion of his expenses by his own earnings. He was a member of the scholarship divisions in Latin, Greek and mathematics, and at the close of the course was chosen one of the eight to represent the class on Commencement Day, and was awarded the Bond 25
