Excerpt from Secretary's Second Report, 1914: Harvard College Class of 1908To this statistical information the Class has seen fit to add some personal narratives. The vitality and worth of these depend largely upon their intimate revelation of the authors. Therefore the secretary has firmly refrained from Titing accounts of men who have not replied. The bulk of the Class found time to comply with our request, based as it was on a tradition of long standing.The accounts vary greatly in length and in substance. This was inevitable at first. Probably the variation in length will always exist. It is hoped. However. That the variation in substance will not be so great in our next Re port four years hence, after the Class has realized the true value of the fuller and more intimate histories.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
