Letter from Ninety-Nine.

CAMBRIDGE, Nov. 17, 1896.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

To Mr. and Mrs. Daniel A Dwight:

In behalf of the Class of 1899 we wish to express to you our deep sympathy for the loss of your son Howard.

Modest and unassuming in disposition, his general acquaintance in the class was not large. But those who knew him will never cease to be influenced by the memory of his gentleness and quiet strength of character. His life among us was a noble example of conscientious devotion to duty and to his own high ideals of faith and conduct.

For the class, ROBERT G. SHAW, 3D, JOHN E. DEVLIN, JR., THORNDIKE H. ENDICOTT, MALCOLM DONALD.
