Ibtetory of Class of ’96 WK, the Class of Ninety-six, always original, desired to say farewell to our friends in a characteristic manner. Accordingly, when bidden to give our parting words, we endeavored to think of something distinctive, a tinv idea came to us. which has grown and shrivelled till it has reached its present proportions. Our idea was to send the handwriting of each member of Ninety-six to a noted graphologist, have him or her (the said graphologist's gender is a class secret.) read the characters, and to leave the record as an undying memorial to our friends. We carried out our plan, and now, when years have passed and we have changed even in the eyes of our loved ones, there will still be an excellent portrait of each of us in '96. To be sure, in the following pages we see many qualities and quantities which we had never dreamed of applying to our classmates. Nay, it requires the eye of a graphologist to penetrate this fleshy body and sec germs of disease ; to read a nature apparently gentle and tell us it is obstinate and stubborn. Our oracle has told many of us our professions in life, which, of course, we shall immediately pursue, no matter what we intended before. So wherever we may be standing, the class in a body halts, turns right-about-face, and is dismissed. Yours truly, Nixkty-six. P. S.—Should any desire the address of this graphologist who has contributed so largely toward the moulding of our characters and destinies, let him address “ Bureau of Information of Ninety-six. 14
