Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Exercises of Class Day, at Dartmouth College: Tuesday, June 27, 1876
This day is specially ours, and, as we recall the thronging memories of our years of companionship, let us all forget what ever there may have been of bitterness in our relations, and like strong, true men, dwell only upon the pleasant aspects of our college course. We meet to-day with a mingling of emo tions; joy that our struggles for an education are about to be crowned with success - that we are so soon to be of the active workers of the world's arena; sadness because we are about to break the bonds which four years together have strongly woven - because we shall never again as a class look upon these scenes now so familiar yet it is useless to try to speak of the sadness which our coming separation throws over us, for words are weak, but every heart knoweth its own bitterness.
