Excerpt from Harvard College, Class of 1880: Secretary's Report, No. Vi., June, 1900 Ustom seems to require from the class secretary a preface to his quinquennial report, but I do not understand that it is a law that it shall be read. It often serves as a vehicle for bringing to the attention of the class their remissness in answer ing the secretary's circulars and letters. I will admit that I have already accumulated some material which might be worked off in that way, but I am not yet in a condition of mind to use it. The busy men, from force of habit, have generally answered by return mail, and if some of those with time to burn have used my circulars for lighters, I confess to a secret admiration of their independent situation. Then, again, many circulars brought back with them pleasant letters and messages from classmates long separated by time and space, the value of which is not to be measured.

Excerpt from Harvard College Class of 1880, Secretary's Report, 1912, Vol. 8 Dear classmates, - The only merit of this report is that so many of you desired it. It was begun soon after our thirtieth anniversary, and I soon discovered that your interest was to hear from others and not to communicate your own doings. Nevertheless I have kept on with it, and as it may help us to keep closer in touch with one another, I hope you will think it worth while. It is still incomplete. There are several memorial sketches that should be prepared and several classmates are still to be heard from, but it seems best to wait no longer and to ask you to receive it as it is, with that generous consideration for your class secretary which you have so often shown.

Excerpt from Harvard College Class of 1880: Secretary's Report, No; II. Commencement 1888 To The Class of Eighty: - In preparing this report I have, as a rule, let each man speak for himself, so that the information given is absolutely reliable. In a very few instances I have added facts which the writer has neglected to mention, and on the other hand I have omitted considerable matter which seemed inappropriate; for instance, statements of salaries, hopes for the future, engagements, and most of the humor inspired by question number two. The office of editor has been more difficult than I anticipated, and frequently I have been perplexed in the extreme to know whether I should offend more by omitting or by inserting. Will you all kindly remember that in so large a class there is great variety of taste. I make no apology, however, for giving so much space to Bradley and Geddes: I fear rather that I shall be blamed for not giving more. There are few innovations in this report. Seventy-seven printed a picture of their baby, and Seventy-nine of their window. Much of the matter in the Appendix has rarely been given, however, and not, I think, in any recent report. The Class Directory is a novelty which will, I hope, prove useful. The names of a few men who were always identified with the Class of Seventy-nine have been omitted, by request, from the body of this report, and also the name of one classmate.

Excerpt from Harvard College, Class of 1880: Fortieth Anniversary Report, Report IX-1920 It was suggested to me that this report should contain an historical sketch of the class. Certainly I do not feel competent to write it. Nor does it seem to me necessary when from the information the report contains we can write the story for ourselves. There is one thing, however, to record. We were classmates and friends more than forty years ago. The tie has grown stronger with lessening num bers and advancing years. We know in our hearts it will be so to the end. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
