Page 9 text:

HE. “25th” Reunion of the Class of ’82, W. P. I., was held on the even¬ ing of June 12, 1907, at the Warren Hotel, Worcester, Mass. Of the thirty-one who were graduated in June, 1882, four have died: Foster, C. H., Goddard, Griggs, and Wyman. Of the remaining twenty-seven, sixteen were on hand for the occasion: — Ames, Barlow, Donovan, ELarle, Foster, F. A., Hastings, Hawes, Ma rsh, O’Flynn, Oliver, Owen, Prince, Sewall, and Washburn, W. S. The balance of eleven who were not there: Biberstein, Casey, Cowan, Downe, Hall, Hub¬ bard, Jordan, Mason, Tucker, Warfield and Washburn, A. H., were scattered from California and Oregon on the west to Lngland and Germany on the east, and all seemed to have good reasons for not being there. A thoroughly enjoyable time was had at the dinner, which was the only place where all succeeded in getting together at the same time. But the partial gatherings, during the afternoon before as well as on the day after, were the source of much pleasure. At the business session of the reunion, held immediately after the dinner, Ames was elected President of the Class, Prince was elected Secretary, and Washburn, W. 5., was elected Treasurer.
