Bradley, Esq. of New York, a graduate of the Class of Fifty- ‘Five, about two hundred volumes and pamphlets, being a part of his profes- sional library.

The gift comes through Dr. William L. Bradley, ’60, of New Haven. ied a Ninety-Eight Class Fund. At a meeting of the Senior Class of the Academical Department last week it was decided to establish a Class Fund to meet the expenses of publishing the Class records. A subscription of $5 from each man is expected, the whole to be invested bv the Treasurer of the University, and to be subject to de- mand of the Class Secretary. At the end of eighty years from graduation the principal will become a part of the general fund of the University. The following committee was ap- pointed to take charge of the work: Ps. Bingham, i W.. Wisger fe Smith, F. E. Williamson and H. B. Wright. It is hoped that future classes may take the same step. THE ERAVELERS spt JAMES G. BATTERSON, Pres’t. Of Hartford, Conn.
