  • Why I Joined the Fne
    WHY I JOINED THE FNE by Pierre de Rosa It is time to light a candle. I had the good fortune to visit with Paul Ritchie, the General Commissioner of the Federation of North American Explorers (FNE) in October 2013. He was bringing a group of youth on a visit to Buffalo and Niagara Falls. What I saw impressed me deeply. Twenty-five boys and girls, all dressed in full uniform, were praying the Divine Mercy Chaplet on their knees on the steps of the altar at Our Lady of Victory Basilica, in Lackawanna, New York. No one forced them; they were there willingly. FNE is a Catholic youth development program, modeled The lesson of Father Baker.

    BIOGRAPHICAL N OTICES OF GRADUATES OF Y ALE COLLEGE INCLUDING T HOSE GRADUATED IN CLASSES LATER THAN 1815, WHO ARE NOT COMMEMORATED IN THE ANNUAL OBITUARY RECORDS BY FRANKLIN B OWDITCH DEXTER, LITT.D. SAISSUED A SUPPLEMENT TO THE OBITUARY RECORD NEW HAVEN— 1913 PREFACE Biographical S ketches of the graduates of Yale College to 1815 have already been published, in six octavo volumes ; and when it became necessary to bring this series of Sketches to a close, the author was requested by the Cor poration of the University to compile a supplementary volume, of those deceased graduates of the College, of Classes later than 1815, who have not been included in the Obituary Records, published annually since 1860. fMany o the notices in the volume thus compiled have a certain sameness, as commemorating those who died too soon to have achieved much; while another considerable group consists of those who were early lost sight of, or whose distant residence has obscured their later history. The time which could be given to the task of compilation has limited the amount of research, but it is hoped that the results justify the design. BIOGRAPHICAL N OTICES GRADUATES OF YALE COLLEGE CLASSF O l8l6 REUBEN B OOTH, son of Reuben H. and Sarah Booth, was born in Newtown, Connecticut, on November 26, 1794. The family removed to Kent in his boyhood, and he entered Yale at the opening of Sophomore year.
