Excerpt from Secretary's Report, No. II, 1884 A few who graduated are lost, as the records will show but several who were lying hid showed themselves after repeated appeals from me. Of members of the Class who did not graduate, the proportion of those lost and hiding is of course much larger, for many, who stayed with us but a few weeks or months, felt that the ties that bound them to the Class were so slight that they were broken when they left the College and Cambridge and then, too, it is hardly reasonable for the Secretary of our Class to expect communications from many of those who were ever connected with the glorious Class of seventy-seven (of whom we had a goodly sprinkling) when they can report them selves to the Secretary of that Class, though, thanks to Mr. Russell, seventy-seven's Secretary, 1 am enabled to make my records much more complete in this direction than they would otherwise be. I suppose there are some among us who are so innately modest that they dislike the idea of any printed mention of themselves, and this I judge to be the reason why some answers to my inquiries were delayed so long, and others are still wanting. There are some names, that, closely identified with our Class in most respects, I am against my will obliged to place among Members not Graduates, but the Faculty had to draw the line somewhere, though I can but think that they were feeling out of sorts when they drew it. It may be a surprise to some to learn, that, though we have thirty six lawyers among our graduates, and fifteen among those who did not graduate with us, we are considerably below the average of the classes near us, in lawyers. Seventy-six has 37 per cent among its graduates, and a total of 32 per cent, including all members. Seventy - Seven has, graduates 31 per cent, total 26 per cent. Seventy-nine has.

Excerpt from Secretary's Report, No. Vi, 1900 The autobiographic form which I have used from the beginning in my reports, and which has become quite general, has advantages in accuracy, in readableness, and in the personal avor which it imparts, but for men who are inclined to be modest it has serious drawbacks.

Excerpt from Secretary's Report, 1890, Vol. 2 The review of the history of the University for the past three years has been written by Fletcher, and to him, as well as the other mem bers of the Class who have so generously ofi'ered and given their assistance in collecting the necessary information, I desire to express my sincere thanks. It has been an exceedingly pleasant task to receive and file the many letters from you all, and again and again I have regretted my inability to answer. Let me say, as I have said before, that I am always glad to receive news from '87 men, and that it will very much increase the value of the records in my hands if you will from time to time notify me of any important occurrences in your lives. It is needless to say that any information as to Class matters that I may have in my possession, is always at the disposal of the Class, and will be very gladly furnished.
