1 Hon. H. K. Oliver, the night that he presided at the annual dinner of the Latin School Association, (Nov. 10, 1880,) told a story of meeting him a short time before, and calling him by the name which he had dropped years previously, to his infinite surprise.

2 Dr. Watson says this could not have been Adolphus Eugene Watson, Harv. 1820, A.M., died 1876, his youngest brother, whose name has been inserted on Dr. Hale's interleaved Catalogue, and in addenda to the edition of the Catalogue in 1847, and was suggested by Dr. Furness, as he was never at the Latin School.

8 This name was printed Woods in the Catalogue of 1847, but Mr. Charles Hickling, of this Class, says it should be Wood, as he was a brother of John above.

4 Not in the Catalogue of 1847, but inserted by Rev. E. E. Hale, D.D., in his manuscript Catalogue, and in addenda to the edition of the Catalogue in 1847.

5 See Proceedings of Massachusetts Historical Society, 1881-3, p. 298; also Appendix. "The regular course of studies, the years of academical and professional education, have not yielded me better facts than some idle books under the bench at the Latin School."Emerson's Essays.

• Perhaps identical with the Gibbs of the Class of 1810-1811. Dr. Farley, of that Class, thinks Samuel Gibbs had no middle name.

7 Is he George Manson Hanners, Yale, 1823, A.M., M.D. 1827? 8 Died soon after 1830. 9 This name was not on the Catalogue of 1847. It is entered on Dr. Hale's Catalogue, and in addenda to the Catalogue of 1847. He was a brother of Isaac, of our Class of 1805.

1 We take this name, which was not given on the Catalogue of 1847, from Mr. Stimpson's subscription to the Register of the Latin School Association. The middle name was furnished by his daughter. Dr. Watson writes that he remembers him at the School.

2 See Collections of Massachusetts Historical Society, 4th series, vol. ii. pp. 241–245.

8 Inserted on Rev. Dr. Hale's interleaved Catalogue. He is a member of the Latin School Association, and on the Register has subscribed himself as entering this year.

4 Son of Rev. William Jenks, D.D., of our Class of 1790.

5 Probably Charles Edward Leverett, Trin. 1830, A.M. Harv. 1848; died 1868.

6 See Loring's Hundred Boston Orators, p. 493.

7 See a letter in the Appendix.

8 Not on the Catalogue of 1847, but inserted on Dr. Hale's Catalogue; and in addenda to Catalogue of 1847.

9 Brother of Robert C. of our Class of 1812, Joseph H. of 1807, and William of 1804. Inserted on authority of Robert C. Mackay.

CHAPTER VII.

1814-1828.

THE chapter corresponding to this in the Catalogue of 1847, extended from 1814-1836, and a note stated that as far as 1824 it was "made up mostly from Mr. Gould's printed catalogues from 1819 to 1824, and from the School records of those who finished the whole course." It has seemed better to divide it, so as to make a separate chapter of Mr. Gould's administration, as was done in the case of Mr. Biglow's. Most of the changes in names in this chapter, of which there are several, are made on the authority of the owners themselves, or members of their immediate families, from whom the Committee has received much assistance. As the letters from these sources contain much interesting matter, for which there is not room in this volume, they have been filed among the archives of the Association.

8 Died 5 Jan. Son of John, of our Class of 1780.

♦ Died 25 May. Went to College, but left in the Senior year.

1 See Proceedings of the Massachusetts Historical Society, 1884-85, p. 72. Captain of the School.

2 Died in College.

5 Rev. Dr. Newell of this Class adds this name.

8 Probably.

6 Died 11 May. Perhaps the same as the Withington of 1812.

4 Died in College.

7 Died Feb. 25.

8 One of the recipients of the LLOYD Gold Medal at the English High School. Grandson of Master Hunt; son of John Dixwell of our Class of 1783, and brother of E. S. Dixwell of our Class of 1816.

9 Captain of the School.

1 The Christian name, omitted in the Catalogue of 1847, is inserted here on the authority of Dr. G. H. Lodge of this Class.

2 See a pamphlet written by him, entitled "Some of the descendants of Thomas Clarke," 8 See note 8, p. 154.

p. 29.

4 Dr. Lodge thinks his name was J. E. F. and that he was a book-keeper at the office of the Boston Post, and Mr. Dixwell says his name was Edw. H.

6 Founder of the House of the Angel Guardian.
