Dear Brothers in Gamma Delta Psi:— The Convention of 1904 charged Kappa Chapter to produce a Catalog. It is herewith produced. The completion of this book has been achieved through the efforts of men in every Chapter, who sacrificed time, pleasure, and even business that the Catalog might be. It is the result of hard work. We have tried to offset inexpe¬ rience by consideration, to remove errors by numerous revisions. We have sought to set down what seemed to us the essential facts concerning each Gamma Delt’: his name in full, number in chap¬ ter, year of birth, date of initiation, school and college, occupation, business address, wife’s maiden name, his date of marriage, and permanent address. Some of you have thought that we should have done more—added his college fraternity, e. g., his honors, his children. The line had to be drawn somewhere. ‘This book is not biographical. We could not afford to sketch each man’s life. It is a Catalog, and as such should be simply an accurate, complete membership roll of the past and present members of the Fraternity. The Chapter rolls are so printed that space is left for notes and corrections. If you find this a valuable feature write and tell us. We want to hear from every man with criticism, hostile or favor¬ able, and from every man whose record is incomplete in any par¬ ticular. Such comment will be invaluable for our next Catalog. Especially do we want information concerning the dead Chapters and their members not here enrolled. We have tried hard to secure facts concerning the dead Chapters, and we have been at consid¬ erable expense to obtain what is herein published. We regret that our information is so scant in many instances, but it did not seem wise to delay the publication of this book in the hope that we might 4 PREFACE. obtain complete records. Succeeding editions will correct the errors contained in this book and supply its omissions. The committee wishes to acknowledge the assistance of Everett E. Belding, president of the National Board; of Robert L. Cook of Kappa Chapter for his design for the title page, and of these among other members of Kappa Chapter,—Robert C. Pepper, George A. Graves, 2d, and Donald M. Baker. In the other Chapters of the Fraternity the following men have furnished us with records of their respective Chapters and have aided us heartily: Alpha, John L. Gilson and Edward E. Curtis; Delta, Carl P. Palmer, Horace E. Beecher, and Douglas Sinclair; Epsilon, J. H. Gorham and Clinton C. Stevens; Eta, Wilbur J. Downey and Frank B. Jennings; Theta, F. Edward Bosson; Iota, Homer S. Johnson, L. Francis Murphy, J. Gleeson Murphy, and Earle E. Devlin; Nu, Payson Dana and R. S. Marshall; Omicron, Glenn A. Stockwell; Rho, Paul G. Bechtner; Sigma, Leland P. Sheldon and Lynn L. Gearhart; Tau, Henry J. King and Payne Jennings; Upsilon, John J. Clark and George Gund; Phi, L. Huntress, Jr., and Henry L. Wilder; Chi, Lone A. Morrison; Psi, J. Hart Caughey and W. E. Bryan; Omega, H. P. Thompson and John Y. Moore. “The more you do for the Fraternity, the more the Fraternity will mean to you,” is, mayhap, trite gospel. This Catalog is an endeavor to advance the Fraternity and to cement with the appre¬ ciation of manhood the friendships formed when boys. In that spirit Kappa Chapter presents this book with sincere hope that it may accomplish all she could desire. For the Committee. JOHN A. DENISON, Chairman.
