This is from the 1913 30th yr. anniversary of Harvard College

Prepared for college at Friend's academy, New Bedford, and was admitted to Harvard in June 1879.

Shortly after graduation I entered the employ of the Morse Twist Drill and Machine Co., and am still with them, at 100 Fifth St., New Bedford. I have been trustee of the New Bedford Five Cent Savings Bank since 1889, and Clerk of that Corp. since 1907. I have been trustee of the "First Congregational Society in New Bedford" (Unitarian), which was established in 1798 and incorporated in 1808. Am a member of the New Bedford Protecting Society, the successor of the, "Committee of Vigilance" which was organized by 1830 for the protection of the town from mob violence and later made a part of the Fire Dept. under the present name, for the protection of property at times of fire.

I am a member of the Wamsutta, Dartmouth, Country, and Yacht Clubs of New Bedford, University Club of Boston, Harvard Clubs of New Bedford and New York, Old Colony Historical Society of Taunton, Mass., Old Dartmouth Historical Society of New Bedford, and the American Economic Association.
