SUMMARY.

Thirty names are included in this year's roll, the ages ranging from Lyman's ninety years to Dyer's twenty-nine. The average is sixty-nine years, eight months, and six days. Including the seven others that died more than a year ago, but are now first reported, the average is raised to seventy-one years, four months, and twenty-two days. Eleven were more than eighty years old; eleven were between seventy and eighty, eight between sixty and seventy, three between fifty and sixty, two between forty and fifty, one between thirty and forty, and one had not yet reached thirty.

One of the number was a trustee ; twenty-three were graduates; eleven, non-graduates; and two, resident students. Fiske was both an alumnus and a trustee.

Four were without college training. Seven were from Amherst, six from Dartmouth, four from Yale, three from the University of Vermont, two from Bowdoin, two from Middlebury, while Harvard, Princeton, Williams, Brown, Ripon, Iowa, Illinois, Marion, Genesee, and St. Petersburg were also represented.

Besides the Congregational churches, Presbyterian, Episcopalian, Free Baptist, Reformed Dutch, and Unitarian churches shared the services of these workers.

Born on the foreign field, and dying there, Bird gave his life unreservedly to the cause of missions; Baker, Ensworth, Brown, and Holmes, among others, labored in home missions, while the same missionary spirit was seen no less in Buck's work in the city. Johnson, Blake, and Scott gave of their strength to the work of their denominations in ways that will make their loss felt, and Ide's pastorate had given him a unique position in Wisconsin. Fiske's long service of a single church was notable, and this Seminary as well as many a good cause has especial reason for remembering the records of himself and Ropes. Packard's influence in the training of men to hold the foremost positions in his church has but few parallels; Frary contributed not a little to promoting the success of Pomona College; and Lee and Jameson were drawn into successful educational work after having ministered in the pulpit. Dickerman's name is associated with his writings on Egyptology, and Barber's pen was facile and telling. Nor by any means least worthy is the record of some that after long struggle with bodily weakness were forced to turn from the pastorate, but ministered none the less by their lives in other ways.
