The members of the Class of Sixty- Three, Yale College will meet this year, it being the thirty-fifth since graduation There will be the usual meeting for business in one of the lecture or recita- tion rooms about noon on Tuesday, June 28th.

The electric cars from New Haven pass near the Club House. Members of the Class are requested to inform the Class Secretary, Samuel Hunting- ton, 146 Broadway, New York City, on or before June 20th whether they mean to be present. As the Secretary will be expected to make a report to the Class, to consist of such information as may be furnished him by absent members, all who will be unable to be present are requested to write him, telling what has hapened to, or been done by them and their families, with as full an account as may be thought proper of their present sur- roundings and circumstances, and other matters of especial interest to them. The Secretary will be glad to receive any material that may be of use for a future Class History, although it will probably not be printed for some time yet. Sixty-Eight’s Reunion. The Class of Sixty-Eight will hold its reunion this year, and, judging by the letters already received, the Com- mittee expects that there will be a large attendance. The Class Banquet will be held at the house of the New Haven Lawn Club on Whitney avenue, and “The Woodbridge,” 159 Elm street, has been engaged for the exclusive use of the Class during Commencement week. —-+4—___—_ Obituary. LEONARD ABRAM BRADLEY, ’55. Leonard: A. Bradley, °55, of New York City, died very suddenly on Mon- day, while visiting his brother, Dr. William L. Bradley, at his home, No. 226 Church street, New Haven. He had come to New Haven on Saturday, and up to the time of his death was in as good health as usual. On Monday morning he was suddenly attacked with heart disease, and death followed al- most instantly. - He leaves a brother, Dr. W. L. Bradley, ’60, and three sis- ters, all of whom reside in New Ha- ven. Mr. Bradley was born in New Haven, Pa., on March 14, 1833. He entered Yale in 1851, and graduated with the Class of Fifty-Five. After graduation he took a course in the Yale Law School, finishing his studies in the of- fice of Charles E. Strong, of New York City. He was admitted to the New York bar in May, 1858, and was for some time in partnership with Charles E. Strong, before engaging in practice alone. He continued in the practice of law up to the time of his death. Mr. Bradley was a member of the Presby- terian Church, presided over by Rev. Dr. John Hall. He was intensely in- terested in the Young Men’s Christian Association, and narticularly in the Yale Y. M. C. A... He was also closely as- sociated with the branch at 23d street, New York City. He had taken an ac- tive part in the development of soldiers’ libraries, and had been instrumental in placing books in various army posts throughout the country. For many years he was Assistant Secretary of his class, doing a large part of the work ‘connected with that office. <>, a» 2 2 och The Late Mr. Brisbin. A classmate of John Ball Brisbin, | Forty-Six, who died at St. Paul on March 22, and whose obituary notice | has been in the WEEKLY, writes in an obituary sketch just received that Mr. Brisbin, on retiring from the practice of law about ten years ago, presented his library to the Ramsey County Bar Association, which he had assisted in_ founding. The sketch contains a tri- pute to Mr. Brisbin’s attractive personal — qualities and his genius for friendship. This is the new home of the Phoenix Mutual Life Insurance Company, of Hartford. Its architects were Cady, Berg & See, the men who have built so many of the most conspic- uous structures of New Yale. Athletic Calendar. April 23.— Invitation games, at Yale Field.
