Excerpt from Fourth Report of the Secretary of the Class of 1872 of Harvard College: June, 1878-June, 1881 The Report of the Class Fund I have thought best, for various reasons, to print by itself; and it will be distributed among the members of the Class by mail, or otherwise. The income of it is sufficient to afford us our regular triennial dinner, and to pay all current expenses and, while it is so, I do not think it worth while to invite further subscriptions to it, although only a small number of the Class have contributed the present fund. Those who have means to spare, and are anxious to contribute to something, are invited to subscribe to the Class Subscription Fund for the College, a report of which is given on a subsequent page. There are several copies of the last Report left, also of the first, and of the class-day Oration, Poem, etc., which I shall be glad to send to any of the Class desiring them. 'please inform me of any mistakes in the following record, and of any change in occupation, address, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Seventh Report of the Secretary of the Class of 1872 of Harvard College, 1872-1898 I want to apologize for troubling you all so much as I have in getting the necessary information, and to thank you for your prompt replies to my circulars. While some of the non-graduate members of the class have disappeared from our records, through my inability to trace them, I now have, I think, some knowledge of every graduate member, though some for one reason and some for another prefer to remain in retirement, and are unwilling that any thing concerning them should be published. Their wishes in the matter of course are to be respected; but I cannot help thinking that they fail to realize how much interest is taken in any one who has been connected with the class, and who spent with us so intimately four years of his life. My last report was published in 1894, and not many changes have taken place in our lives in the four years that have passed Since then. Most of the class are by this time pretty well settled in their various occupations, and, as the following pages will Show, are doing their Share in the active work of the world.
