Sixth Biographical Record of the Class of 1869, Yale College, 1868-1894 SIXTH BIOGRAPHICAL R ECORD HEOF T CLASSF O 'SIXTY.NINE YALE C OLLEGE 1869-1894 /.-.-. ' ■ ■ ' * . COMPILEDND A PRINTED IN CONNECTION WITH THE QUARTER.CENTURY R EUNION JUNE 2 6, 1894 NEW H AVEN: THE T UTTLE, MOREHOUSE & TAYLOR PRESS I895 37*. y yi u PREFACE. At t he business meeting of the class, held June 25, 1889, it was voted to have a class reunion on the twenty-fifth anniversary of graduation ; the undersigned was elected Secretary ; and a tax of five dollars was laid to pay for the quarter-century biographical record. The intent of this latter vote was that the record should cover the whole time since graduation, and, in accordance with this plan, this volume is issued as the twenty-five year record of the class of '69. The r ecord contains the names of 181 men who have been connected with the class, 118 graduates and 63 non-graduates. As shown in the statistics ^ at the end of the volume, this seems to be the full number of those who Pj h ave had any real connection with '69. g Direct replies have been received from all but three or four of the grad- ^ uates, but the record is quite incomplete as to the non-graduates. Diligent 1 inquiry, with careful search of directories, has failed to disclose the where aboutsf o some, and others, whose addresses were supposedly correct, O have failed to send any response to circulars or letters. On the other hand, fri it is a matter of satisfaction that replies have come from some members of H the class who have been lost track of for a number of years, so that their £j biographical records are reasonably complete. P4o T make up this twenty-five year record, the history of each man has W been summarized from previous reports, and so far as possible brought up 1—1 to date. It has been the aim to avoid a mere repetition of what has appeared ^.before, except of course in the matter of statistics. Obituary notices in previous records have not been repeated, but in a few instances new notices — have been written. When there has been no report for some time, the grecord is given to the latest date known. In short, this record contains all jthat the Secretary has been able to learn of the entire number of 181 men. In order to give a more direct personal interest to the narrative, it has seemed best to retain the exact words of the replies received, in whole or '. in part, whenever they were in such form as to allow it. The S ecretary is indebted to Bagg for the account of the class reunion in «i894, and for many valuable suggestions in the preparation of the record. c*.sTt was hoped to have the volume completed and issued some months ago, ^but various things have conspired to hinder it. The forbearance of the ^ class, in view of the long delay, is by no means unappreciated. ™ T HOMAS HOOKER, Secretary. 233 C hurch St., New Haven, Conn., Sept. 13, 1895. JL> V JL v# The p rinters' bills, rendered to their respective editors, show the dates of issue and numbers of copies of the five previous records to have been as follows : I., June 28, 1873, Heaton, 200 ; II., July 31, 1875, Phelps, 250 ; III., Sept. 27, 1879, Beers, 150; IV., Jan. 3, 1885, Whitney, 200; V., April 30, 1890, Russell, 150. Of this sixth record, 350 copies are to be printed ; for the cost of extra impressions is relatively slight, after the material has once been put in type, and the distribution of complimentary copies among libraries is to be more extended than on former occasions. From g raduate members of '69, and from those non-graduates who have retained a close association with the class, or who have attended its reunions, the sum of $5 has been asked for the publication of this record. This tax is for the purpose of keeping up the class organization and per petuating its records, and those who have already paid it have given good evidence of class loyalty. It provides for the essential cost of a sufficient number of copies for the class, and as the expense of printing additional copies is relatively small, an edition of unusual size has been issued. Those who have paid the $5 tax can obtain extra copies at $1 each, and the book will be sent to all non-graduate members, who have not already subscribed, on the receipt of $1. The Secretary will exercise his discretion in selling at that price to other individuals, and to such institutions as may desire it. Whatever balance is left after paying for this edition will be kept to meet the expense of the record of 1899. The f ollowing men have already paid the $5 tax, and it is expected that all the other graduates will send the same amount to the Secretary on the receipt of the book : Alger, B agg, Bannard, Bardeen, Bartow, Beers, Bennett, Bissell, Blagden, Buell, Burrell, Cameron, Childs, F.

Ideally p leasant weather prevailed in New Haven on Tuesday, June 26, 1894, when the twenty -fifth anniversary of the class was celebrated, in accordance with the vote passed at the reunion of 1889. The c ircular of invitation for the meeting, signed by the class committee (Evarts, Cameron and McLane), was dated at New York, April 20, and urged that prompt responses be forwarded to the class secretary, Hooker, at New Haven. The l atter sent out a supplementary circular on June 7, saying that about 30 had already promised to come, that the probable attendance would be from 40 to 45 if not more, and that the business meeting would be held at 7 P. M., at 200 Old Chapel, which would be kept open all day. The c ircular also contained these cheering words : " All the members of the class, with their wives and children, are invited to take lunch with Whitney, at his residence, corner of Whitney Avenue and Cliff Street, at 1 o'clock, on Tuesday the 26th. Conveyances will start from there for the Yale-Harvard base ball game about half-past two. " P lease indicate as soon as possible whether you can accept this invitation, and how many members of your family will accompany you. The electric cars, marked Whitney Avenue, leave the corner of Church and Chapel Streets, on Church Street, every twenty minutes, begin ning with the even hour, and pass directly by Whitney's place." sIt i a great pity that no photograph was taken of the jovial party of men, women and children, who clambered 6 B IOGRAPHIES OF YALE 'SIXTY-NINE. aboard t he "private trolley car of '69," at about half-past twelve of the historic day, at the specified corner beneath the hundred-year-old elm tree, and started on their pleas ant pilgrimage towards Whitneyville. There must have been eighty or ninety of them ; and a reproduction of the picture thus presented might have made a most agreeable frontispiece to the present volume, helping somewhat to ameliorate and counteract the severity of its statistics. As t his happy company of classmates, with their ma tronly womankind and interesting progeny, trolled* gaily along towards their celestial goal, — the paradisaical lawn of the hospitable Eli, — they took no heed of the deadly wire which supplied their motive power, but rejoiced the rather, and clapped their hands with glee, at all the chance humors of the voyage. The most characteristic of these were the vain attempts of casual wayfarers to hold up the private car, in ignorance of its "exclusive" scope and mission, or even to fling themselves upon its swiftly-mov ing platforms, in defiance of their crowded condition. fSuch o these uninvited guests as did not get their arms pulled out in making the clutch were treated in an exem plary fashion by the true owners of the car : they were first relieved of their money, jewelry, hats and outer clothing, and were then deposited (as gently as the cir cumstances allowed, but inexorably and without appeal) in the roadway. Though the men of '69 are all well past the military age, they thus showed their old-time physical ability to dispense instant rebuke when their personal rights were invaded ; and, in order that justice might be tem pered with generosity, they at once decreed that the property so strangely acquired should be turned into a fund for the support of the class megatherium in the Pea- body Museum.

Jerome Frank, The Place ofthe Expert in a Democratic Society 1 True, no man can be wholly apart from his fellows. But, if each of us is a promontory, yet the promontory reaches out beyond the social mainland to a point where others cannot intrude. ... It is a no-other-man's land, for others can't penetrate it, can't communicate with it. Jerome Frank, Judge Learned Hand1 Introduction On my summer vacation, I chanced upon the novel Foe by the South African writer 3 J.M. Coetzee. Foe is a modern reworking of Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe. In this modern retelling, Coetzee presents the story of the relation of author and subject, not the story of the adventures of a shipwrecked Englishman. In Foe, the authorial voice is that of Susan Barton, a castaway who ended up on the same island as Cruso and Friday. She, Cruso and Friday are "rescued" and taken by ship to England. En route, Cruso dies. Once in London, Susan Barton takes her story of Cruso and Friday to Daniel Foe, and finds that his interest is more in the story of her life and less in the story of Cruso 's adventures. Foe, chased by creditors, flees his house, into which Barton and Friday move. Barton later leaves, searching for Foe, whom she finally tracks down. Confronting Foe, 4 she says, "I am not a story, Mr.

  • Some Reflections on Judge Learned Hand*
    SOME REFLECTIONS ON JUDGE LEARNED HAND* JEom N. FRANK I WAS ASKED, originally, to speak of Great Judges. I objected. What, I queried, does one mean by "great"? I remembered my dispute with Professor Thorne and Justice Frankfurter about Lord Coke, once Chief Justice of England. I said Coke was a nasty, narrow-minded, greedy, cruel, arrogant, insensitive man, a time-serving politician and a liar who, by his adulation of some crabbed medieval legal doctrines, had retarded English and American legal development for centuries.1 Thorne and Frankfurter replied that I proved their case, that the duration of his influence, no matter whether good or bad, made him a great judge. I think I lost that argument. But if that be the test, then we must put on our list of "greats" such men as Attila, Robespierre, and Hitler, although most of us consider them evil. And so too as to the great among legal thinkers, lawyers, and judges. Consider Tribonian who contributed importantly to the Justinian codification of Roman law which mightily affected the legal systems of the western world. Who was Tribonian? A brilliant scholar but a corrupt judge. I concede, indeed I insist, that great men, good or evil, have often helped to shape history. Carlyle's theory of history-that all history results from the deeds or thoughts of great men-is nonsense, of course. But I think equally nonsensical what I call the No-Man Theory of history, according to which men are but puppets of "social forces," or economics, or geography, or the "spirit of the times"-in short, non-human or un-individual factors which wholly account, deterministically, for all human events.

PHILOSOPHICAL ISSUES IN CONTEMPORARY LAW* F. S. C. Northrop PHILOSOPHY is the name for the basic methodological and theoretical assump- tions of a subject. Since every science uses some method of investigation and any scientist who reports facts to his colleagues must express these facts in words and, hence, introduce concepts and theory, it follows that any science whatever is also a philosophy. When no facts arise, however, to bring the traditional theory or methods of a subject into question, its problems are not philosophical. Then to be a scientist one need not also be a philosopher. Mathematics and physics were in such a state during the two hundred years following the publication of Newton's Principia in 1686. American law thought it was in a similar condition when, following Langdell, it introduced the case method and identified its science with the empirical study of cases. But whenever facts arise in any subject which bring its traditional theory or methods into question, at that moment its problems become philosophical.

    FROM PENS TO PIXELS: TEXT-MEDIA ISSUES IN PROMULGATING, ARCHIVING, AND USING JUDICIAL OPINIONS Kenneth H. Ryesky* I. INTRODUCTION The American judicial system, like the British system on which it is based, relies on precedent and therefore requires the availability of prior judicial opinions in order to function.' Whether judicial opinions are the law, or merely evidence of the law, or some hybrid of the two,2 text media are inextricably entwined with adjudicating the law in America.' * Attorney at Law, East Northport, N.Y., and Adjunct Assistant Professor, Department of Accounting and Information Systems, Queens College CUNY; B.B.A. Temple University, M.B.A. La Salle University, J.D.

    A TALE OF TWO HANDS: One Clapping; One Not Burt Neuborne* My thanks to the editors of the Arizona State Law Journal for organizing this symposium celebrating the 100th anniversary of Judge Learned Hand’s brilliant and courageous, if unsuccessful, effort in Masses Publishing Co. v. Patten1 to slow down the repressive train that was running amok over Americans who vigorously spoke out against America’s entry into World War I. While many have chronicled the major Supreme Court cases from Schenck to Gitlow failing to protect free speech during and after World War I,2 they usually don’t go beneath the surface of the Supreme Court to plumb the massive wave of repression that swept the nation in the summer and fall of 1917, fanned by jingoism, fear of immigrants, war fever, fear of communism, and President Woodrow Wilson’s streak of fanaticism.3 Convinced that he was doing God’s work in committing the nation to a war to make the world safe for democracy, Wilson, a baffling figure who was an appalling racist, an economic reformer, an idealistic internationalist, and the first President to appoint a Jew to the Supreme Court,4 had no qualms about * Norman Dorsen Professor in Civil Liberties, New York University School of Law.

    Yale University EliScholar – A Digital Platform for Scholarly Publishing at Yale Publications on Yale History Yale History 1-1961 Yale's Extracurricular & Social Organizations, 1780-1960 Loomis Havemeyer Follow this and additional works at: https://elischolar.library.yale.edu/yale_history_pubs r 1 YALE'S EXTRACURRICULAR & SOCIAL ORGANIZATIONS Loomis Havemeyer January 1961 Foreword Since the eighteenth century there has grown up at Yale a vast number of societies, fraternities and clubs; students have always been great njoinersu. Some of these have lasted a long time and are impor- tant while others existed only a brief period and died, leaving, perhaps, only a name with no date available. In going through the old copies of the Banner the names of many of these latter appear only to be omitted in later issues and so we assume that they passed from the scene. A group might get together for some purpose, select a name, be recorded in the Banner, and then in a short time cease to exist. These we have not included for while they may have been important to the founders, they made no impression on the Yale scene. We have not in- cluded athletics or the preparatory school and state clubs that as a rule meet infrequently, perhaps for one dinner a year, and usually have an ephemeral existence. After months of research we have compiled a list of the more important extracurricular activities, giving, where possible, the date, when they first appeared and if they dropped out, the year. In some cases there are no adequate records and so we have resorted to ques- tion marks.
